EDITORS COMMENTS
This iconic print captures a moment of immense historical significance - the Coronation Day of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in 1937. Standing proudly on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, the royal couple is accompanied by their two young daughters, Princess Elizabeth and Margaret. The joyous scene unfolds as they emerge to receive the adoration and applause from an ecstatic crowd below. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only the regal elegance of George VI and Queen Elizabeth but also glimpse into a pivotal era for Britain. The monarchy's resilience during these turbulent times is palpable as they bask in the love and support of their subjects. Amidst this grand spectacle, one cannot overlook another prominent figure at the center: Queen Mary herself, waving graciously to those gathered. Her presence serves as a reminder of continuity and tradition within the British royal family. Preserved meticulously by The Northcliffe Collection, this photograph allows us to relive history through its grainy yet evocative imagery. It encapsulates an era when Britain sought solace in its monarchy amidst global uncertainties. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Mail Newspapers' archive, it becomes evident that it holds more than just aesthetic value; it represents a poignant chapter etched forever in British history - one that continues to captivate our imagination even today.
