EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the solemn and historic moment during the coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, as the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Geoffrey Fisher, places the ancient and revered St. Edward's Crown upon her head. The coronation, which took place on June 2, 1953, was a grand and elaborate ceremony steeped in tradition and symbolism, marking the formal installation of Queen Elizabeth II as the monarch of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth realms. The event took place in Westminster Abbey, a magnificent Gothic church in the heart of London, where every English and British monarch since William the Conqueror has been crowned. Queen Elizabeth II sat regally on the intricately carved and gilded Coronation Chair, wearing the robes of state and the Imperial State Crown, as she prepared to receive the symbols of her power and authority. The Archbishop of Canterbury, as the spiritual head of the Church of England, officiated the ceremony, anointing the Queen with oil and placing the St. Edward's Crown on her head, signifying her role as both the temporal and spiritual ruler of her realm. The crown, which is made of gold and set with precious stones, is one of the most iconic symbols of the British monarchy and has been used in every coronation since 1661. This image, with its rich history and symbolism, captures the essence of the coronation ceremony and the solemn occasion that marked the beginning of Queen Elizabeth II's reign. The ritualistic pageantry and grandeur of the event serve as a reminder of the enduring tradition and history of the British monarchy.
