EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures a pivotal moment in the preparations for the Coronation of King George VI in 1937. The image shows a viscountess trying on the intricately designed robes that she would wear during the historic ceremony. The robes, created by one of the Court tailors, feature a magnificent cape adorned with 2 1/2 bars of miniver, a type of white fur. The coronet atop the viscountess's head is equally impressive, with sixteen silver balls that had to be carefully fitted behind a tiara. The viscountess's regal attire is a testament to the grandeur and tradition of the British monarchy. The Coronation of King George VI took place on May 12, 1937, at Westminster Abbey in London.
