EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a historic moment in the annals of British monarchy as eleven-year-old Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II, born 1926) makes her way to Westminster Abbey for the Coronation of her father, King George VI, on May 15, 1937. The young Princess, dressed in a white satin gown and ermine-trimmed robe, is seen being greeted by the Duke of Norfolk, Earl Marshal, who bows before her in recognition of her status as Heir Presumptive. The Duke's formal attire, complete with ermine-trimmed robe and tall hat, underscores the grandeur and solemnity of the occasion. The Coronation of King George VI marked a pivotal moment in British history, as it took place during a time of great political and social change, following the abdication of King Edward VIII. This image, with its rich symbolism and historical significance, offers a fascinating glimpse into the ceremonial traditions and pageantry of the British monarchy.
