EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures the grandeur of Selfridges Decorations for the Coronation in May 1937. The image showcases a stunning display of color lithography, depicting the elaborate decorations adorning Selfridges, a renowned department store on Oxford Street in London. The photograph transports us back to a momentous time in British history when King George VI was crowned. The store's Orchard Street entrance is beautifully adorned with an array of flags representing various seaports from across the British Empire. These house flags and funnel markings symbolize the extensive shipping lines that played a crucial role in trade and commerce during that era. Notably, Clara Fargo Thomas, an influential figure from Australia and South Africa, is credited with designing these magnificent decorations. Her artistic vision brought together elements that celebrated both British culture and its global reach. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of Britain's rich heritage as well as its significant contributions to world affairs. It serves as a testament to the unity and strength of not only Great Britain but also the entire British Empire during this pivotal period. This print by Bridgeman Images offers us a glimpse into history while showcasing the beauty and creativity that can be found within art itself.
