EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures a significant moment in British constitutional history: the State Opening of Parliament in 1913, with King George V and Queen Mary making their regal entrance into the House of Lords at the Palace of Westminster. The monarch's annual visit to Parliament is a time-honored tradition, symbolizing the connection between the executive and legislative branches of government. King George V, dressed in his full regalia, including the Imperial State Crown, leads the procession, accompanied by the Duke of Norfolk, the Lord Great Chamberlain, who carries the Cap of Maintenance. Queen Mary, resplendent in her robes and jewels, walks beside her husband, adding an air of grandeur to the occasion. The House of Lords, filled with members of the nobility and other dignitaries, stands in silence as the King and Queen make their way to the Throne. The Speaker of the House of Commons, who sits in the chair, rises to greet them before the King delivers his speech, outlining the government's legislative agenda for the upcoming session. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of British history and tradition, providing a visual reminder of the enduring role of the monarchy in the country's political landscape. The State Opening of Parliament remains a spectacle of regal ceremony and constitutional significance, marking the beginning of a new parliamentary term and the continued collaboration between the monarch and Parliament.
