The solemn scene is filled with patriotic colonial fervor, as crowds gather to witness this historic event.
The image exudes a sense of reverence and respect for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The King and Queen stand tall and dignified, embodying the spirit of remembrance and honor. The backdrop of Gardiner Street adds to the historical significance of this momentous occasion.
