EDITORS COMMENTS
1937, is a captivating photograph capturing a historic moment in British history. Taken by the renowned Photochrom Co. Ltd. of London, this image is part of the extensive collection documenting the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. The image showcases the newly crowned King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, later known as Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, leaving Westminster Abbey following their coronation ceremony on May 12, 1937. The King, whose full name was Albert Frederick Arthur George Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and Queen Elizabeth, born Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes-Lyon, are seen standing in the open air of the abbey's magnificent west front, surrounded by architectural features and ornate balconies. The couple is escorted from the abbey by the Duke and Duchess of York, later King George VI's brother and his wife, Elizabeth. The Duke of York is seen bowing to the King and Queen as they make their way towards the Gold State Coach, which would transport them to their coronation procession through the streets of London. The image is a testament to the grandeur and tradition of the coronation ceremony, with the King and Queen receiving the adoration of the crowd as they make their exit from the historic Westminster Abbey. The photograph also symbolizes the unity and continuity of the British Empire, with the presence of representatives from the Commonwealth and British India, marking the beginning of a new era for the country. This image, with its rich historical significance, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1930s and the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, an event that would forever be etched in the annals of British history.
