EDITORS COMMENTS
The Most Brilliant Fourth of June at Eton College, 1911: A Tradition of Privilege and Celebration The Fourth of June at Eton College, an annual tradition since the late 18th century, was a grand occasion for the privileged few whose sons attended this prestigious institution. This double-page spread from The Sphere captures the essence of the 1911 celebration, held on King George III's birthday. Parents and siblings gathered at the school, eager to partake in the festivities. The day began with speeches, followed by a sumptuous feast. The atmosphere was filled with excitement and anticipation, as the families mingled and reminisced about their time at Eton. One of the highlights of the day was the Procession of Boats, a spectacle that drew crowds to the banks of the River Thames. The school's rowing teams, dressed in their distinctive colors, took to the water in a grand procession. The boats, adorned with flags and pennants, glided smoothly along the river, creating a picturesque scene. The day was not just about tradition and celebration, however. There were also more active pursuits, such as the cricket match, which provided a welcome distraction from the formalities of the day. The Fourth of June at Eton College was a time for the upper classes to come together and celebrate their shared heritage and traditions. It was a day of privilege, of laughter, and of creating memories that would last a lifetime. This photograph, taken in 1911, captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when the world moved at a slower pace, and traditions were cherished and upheld.
