EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the enthronement of the first Archbishop of Wales at St Asaph Cathedral in Wales. The image, taken on 1 June 1920 by Alfieri, showcases the grandeur and solemnity of this occasion. In the foreground, we see Mrs Lloyd George gracefully walking alongside the distinguished figure of the Archbishop of York. Both individuals exude an air of importance and elegance as they navigate through a sea of adults gathered for this historic event. The crowd is filled with men and women from all walks of life, united in their shared reverence for religion. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph, transporting us back to the 1920s when clergy members donned gaiters and top hats were still fashionable attire. It serves as a visual reminder that even amidst societal changes over time, faith remains steadfast. Alfieri's expert composition allows us to witness not only an ecclesiastical ceremony but also provides insight into European religious customs during that era. This remarkable piece from Europeana Photography offers a glimpse into our collective past while celebrating both tradition and progress
