1953 Coronation Gallacher Marshall Terence Terry Elizabeth
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a moment of anticipation and grandeur during the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. The Earl Marshall, Terence Hanbury White, 2nd Baron Hanbury (1901-1974), stands proudly in his regal attire, flanked by three elegant ladies, most likely the Queen's attendants. The scene takes place in the hallowed halls of Westminster Abbey, where the coronation ceremony was to take place. The Earl Marshall's expression conveys a sense of solemn duty and reverence, as he prepares to play his crucial role in the historic event. The ladies, dressed in their formal attire, mirror his composure, their faces a mix of excitement and nervousness. The photograph, taken by renowned British photographer Terence Gallacher, captures the essence of the grandeur and tradition surrounding the coronation of a monarch. The intricate details of the Earl Marshall's uniform, the ladies' attire, and the ornate surroundings all contribute to the sense of history and pageantry. The year was 1953, and the world was watching as Britain welcomed its new Queen. The coronation was a symbol of hope and unity, a time when the country came together to celebrate its rich history and traditions. This photograph is a testament to that moment, a snapshot of history that continues to captivate and inspire. The photograph is part of the Terence Gallacher Collection, held by Mary Evans Picture Library, and is a reminder of the importance of preserving historical moments for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
