EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Royal Postilion and Walking Attendant,' was taken during the coronation celebrations of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in 1937. The image captures the essence of tradition and pageantry that defined the era. The postilion, a skilled rider who sits behind the driver of a carriage and controls the horses, is shown expertly guiding his horse while his walking attendant follows closely behind. The horses, with their polished hooves and regal bearing, add to the grandeur of the scene. The men, dressed in their formal attire, exude an air of confidence and professionalism. This photograph is a testament to the importance of horses and their riders in British tradition and the various occupations that were once an integral part of British life. The vibrant colors and clear detail in the image make it a stunning addition to any collection, transporting viewers back to a time of elegance and grandeur. The 'Royal Postilion and Walking Attendant' is an intriguing and evocative glimpse into the past, captured by an unknown photographer for John Player and Sons' commemorative Coronation series.
