EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Princess Elizabeth, later to become Queen Elizabeth II, and the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, are seen making their way through the bustling streets of London in an open-topped carriage on their way to the Guildhall to receive the Freedom of the City of London on June 11, 1948. The young royal couple, dressed in formal attire, wave and smile at the large crowds that have gathered along the route, eager to catch a glimpse of their future monarch. The scene is set against the backdrop of the city's iconic architecture, with the imposing Guildhall building visible in the distance. The carriage is drawn by a team of magnificent horses, adding to the grandeur of the occasion. The streets of Fleet Street, known for its historical significance as the home of the British printing industry, are filled with people from all walks of life, united in their excitement for the royal procession. The Freedom of the City of London is an ancient tradition that grants the holder the right to enter the city with the ceremonial honors of a military procession, as well as the right to drive sheep and cattle through the city without hindrance. The honor was bestowed upon Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh as a symbol of their future roles as leaders of the city and the nation. This photograph captures a moment in history, as the young princess and her husband begin their journey towards their future roles as monarch and consort, surrounded by the warmth and support of the people of London.
