EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, King George V, dressed in full regal attire, is seen making his first public appearance as the new monarch of the United Kingdom following the death of his father, King Edward VII. The image captures the moment of the Proclamation of Accession, which took place on June 6, 1910, at the age of 41, making George the fifth monarch of the House of Windsor. Surrounded by his Privy Councillors, all dressed in their formal robes and wearing the Order of the Garter, George reads the Proclamation, declaring his accession to the throne with "one Voice and Consent of Tongue and Heart." The Proclamation was read aloud in public places throughout the country, marking the formal beginning of George's reign. The solemn occasion was a significant moment in British history, as it marked the end of one era and the beginning of a new one. This photograph is a testament to the rich tradition and historical significance of the British monarchy.
