EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to May 12,1937, capturing a historic moment through the lens of time. The image showcases the iconic Admiralty Arch in all its architectural grandeur, standing tall as a symbol of British power and prestige. As we gaze through this magnificent archway, our eyes are drawn towards an elegant horse-drawn carriage making its way down the avenue. In this carriage sits Albert Frederick Arthur George, also known as King George VI of Great Britain. Accompanied by his beloved wife Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes Lyon, who would later become Queen Elizabeth I (the Queen Mother), they are escorted by footmen dressed in regal attire. The atmosphere is electric with excitement as crowds gather along the streets to catch a glimpse of their monarchs on this significant day - the coronation day. This photograph was originally featured in the Coronation Souvenir Book edited by Gordon Beckles and published by Daily Express in London. Transporting us back to a pivotal moment in history, this image allows us to witness firsthand the splendor and pageantry that surrounded such events during Britain's golden era. It serves as a reminder of not only the architectural marvels that define our cities but also the enduring legacy left behind by those who once graced these hallowed grounds.
