EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, the early morning air of London's Queen Victoria Street is filled with the palpable excitement and anticipation of the upcoming coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. The temporary Abbey entrance, adorned with banners and decorations, stands as a symbol of the grand occasion that lies ahead. The crowd, estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands, gathers along the street, bundled up against the chill, their faces a mix of curiosity, joy, and reverence. The fashionable attire of the era adds a touch of elegance to the scene, with women in full skirts and nipped-in waists, and men in smart suits and hats. Among the crowd, two young women, Terry and June, stand out, their faces beaming with excitement as they eagerly await the start of the coronation proceedings. Terry, wearing a stylish hat and a smart coat, clutches a program in her hand, while June, in a beautiful floral dress, holds a Union Jack flag. The photograph, taken by renowned British photographer Terence Gallacher, captures the spirit of the moment, the sense of history being made, and the unity of the British people as they come together to celebrate the coronation of their new queen. The image is a testament to the power of community, tradition, and the enduring allure of royalty. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is an invaluable document of a significant moment in British history, and a reminder of the sense of pride and unity that came with it. It is a snapshot of a time gone by, yet its relevance and impact continue to resonate with us today.
