Firing a Royal Salute (colour photo)
8668624 Firing a Royal Salute (colour photo) by English Photographer, (20th century); Private Collection; (add.info.: Firing a Royal Salute. Saluting takes many forms, but the custom, however varying the mode of expression, may always be said to be a symbol of respect and a token of trust. The firing of guns as a salute, for instance, implies confidence by the very act of thus temporarily rendering these weapons inactive. Ceremonial salutes are fired on such occasions as the King's Birthday and the anniversary of the reigning monarch's accession to the Throne. We illustrate a gun of the "K" Battery, Royal Horse Artillery, taking part in a Royal Salute. The Royal Horse Artillery is one of the units of the Royal Regiment of Artillery, which was first established on a permanent basis in 1716. Previous to that year, various "trains of artillery" had been raised as occasion demanded.

EDITORS COMMENTS

Saluting comes in many forms, but whether through words or actions, it always signifies honour and admiration. In this case, the firing of guns as part of a salute not only pays tribute to important occasions such as the King's Birthday or an anniversary but also symbolizes confidence by temporarily rendering these weapons inactive.
The Royal Horse Artillery is just one unit within the esteemed Royal Regiment of Artillery, which has been serving since its establishment in 1716. This particular snapshot offers a glimpse into history and tradition, capturing a moment that embodies centuries-old customs still upheld today.
This photograph is not just an image; it encapsulates centuries of military heritage and showcases the dedication and precision required for such ceremonial events.
