EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by Alfieri in the 1920s, we witness a momentous occasion at St Asaph Cathedral in Wales. Dr Edwards, adorned in his ceremonial robes and holding a crook, is seen making his way towards the cathedral to be enthroned as the first Archbishop of Wales. The image exudes an air of solemnity and reverence as Dr Edwards leads a grand procession accompanied by clergymen and clerics. The historic significance of this event is palpable, marking a pivotal moment for religion in Wales. As we delve into the details of the photograph, our attention is drawn to a group of children - young boys - who stand nearby. Their presence adds an element of innocence amidst the gravity of the ceremony unfolding before them. Alfieri's monochrome composition enhances both the timelessness and authenticity of this scene from nearly a century ago. It transports us back to an era where cap-and-gown attire was customary for such religious events. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to faith, tradition, and progress within Welsh society. It encapsulates not only an important milestone for religious leadership but also reflects Europeana Photography's commitment to preserving historical moments that continue to shape our world today.
