EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures H.M. King George V of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Emperor of India, taken around the year 1911. The image, from an original photograph by Messrs. Lafayette, showcases the monarch in a formal attire, dressed in a military uniform adorned with ermine trim and a red cloak. The King, who reigned from 1910 until his death in 1936, is depicted with a stern yet regal expression, reflecting his role as the sovereign of the British Empire. At the time of this portrait, George V was nearing the end of his preparations for his coronation, which took place on June 22, 1911. The event was a grand spectacle, attended by thousands of people from all corners of the empire. The King's attire in the photograph is reminiscent of the grandeur and opulence of the royal occasion. The image was published in "The Portrait Book of Our Kings and Queens 1066-1911," edited by T. Leman Hare. The book, published by T.C. & E.C. Jack in London and Edinburgh, is a comprehensive collection of portraits of British monarchs from the Norman Conquest to the early 20th century. The photograph of King George V is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy, as well as the fashion and clothing trends of the time. The King is seen wearing a traditional military uniform, complete with a robe and sash, symbolizing his role as the Commander-in-Chief of the British Armed Forces. The portrait also features the Prince of Wales, who stands to the side of the King, wearing a similar uniform. The photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the British monarchs and the grandeur of the royal court during the early 20th century.
