EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph taken in 1937, Parliament Square in London is a bustling scene of construction activity as stands and galleries are being erected in preparation for the upcoming coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. The Coronation, which was scheduled for May 12, 1937, required the provision of temporary seating for the thousands of fortunate spectators who would line the processional route to witness the momentous event. The mass of steelwork and scaffolding in the photograph represents the intricate engineering and planning required to accommodate such a large crowd. The stands and galleries were a common feature of coronations, providing a unique opportunity for the public to be a part of the historic occasion. The temporary structures were a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the time, allowing for a large number of people to gather and witness the Coronation procession in comfort and safety. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when such communal events brought the community together in celebration of their monarch. The Coronation stands and galleries in Parliament Square are a reminder of the rich history and tradition that surrounds the British monarchy, and the importance of coming together to witness and participate in significant moments in history. The photograph is a valuable historical record, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the spirit of the Coronation celebrations. It is a testament to the enduring power of community, tradition, and the human spirit, and a reminder of the importance of preserving our history for future generations.
