Royal Departure - King George V and Queen Mary Leave St. George's Chapel
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph taken in June 1911, King George V of England and his wife, Queen Mary, exit the historic St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle following a grand ceremony marking the investiture of their eldest son, Prince Edward (later King Edward VIII), with the prestigious Order of the Garter. The solemn atmosphere is palpable as they depart amidst pomp and circumstance, surrounded by dignitaries and military personnel.
The newly-crowned monarchs' formal attire - George V in his full dress uniform and Queen Mary resplendent in her elegant gown - reflects their regal status. As they make their way from the chapel, the imposing architecture of Windsor Castle provides a stately backdrop to this momentous occasion. This photograph, taken by Bain News Service, captures a pivotal event preceding King George V's coronation at Westminster Abbey on June 22nd.
This historic image not only commemorates an important milestone in British royal history but also serves as a testament to the enduring tradition of pageantry and ceremony that surrounds the monarchy.
