EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in history as Princess Elizabeth II, the future monarch of the United Kingdom, pays a visit to the East End of London on May 9, 1945, following the end of the Second World War. The Princess, who was just 21 years old at the time, is seen interacting with local children and adults, offering them a sense of hope and normalcy amidst the ruins of the war-torn city. Dressed in a simple yet elegant outfit, Elizabeth displays a warm and compassionate demeanor, connecting with the crowd and providing a much-needed morale boost to the Londoners. The image is a testament to the resilience and fortitude of the British people during the trying times of the 1940s and the enduring power of the monarchy as a symbol of unity and continuity. This photograph was taken during the Princess's Victory Tour of London and was published in the book 'Princess Elizabeth: The Illustrated Story of Twenty-one Years in the Life of the Heir Presumptive' by Dermot Morrah in 1947.
