EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a tender moment between King George VI and his family, taken on the 1st of May, 1936, just a few months before his coronation. The King, dressed in a formal suit and wearing the Star of India and the Order of the Bath, sits in an armchair with his wife, Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother), and their two young children, Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II) and Prince Michael, gathered around him. The family's affectionate expressions and body language convey a sense of warmth and closeness, offering a glimpse into the private world of the royal family during a time of great change. The photograph was taken by ILN, the Illustrated London News, a renowned British news magazine that documented historical events and moments of national significance. The image was likely published in the magazine's issue of May or June 1936, providing a visual record of the royal family at the dawn of a new era. King George VI ascended to the throne following the abdication of his brother, King Edward VIII, in December 1936. His reign, which lasted until his death in 1952, was marked by significant challenges, including World War II and the loss of the British Empire's global power. However, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the personal side of the monarchy, showcasing the love and support of the royal family during a time of transition and uncertainty.
