EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the breathtaking scene of the Coronation Procession of King George V and Queen Mary in June 1911, as viewed from above. The procession was a significant moment in British history, attended by an impressive 29 Suffrage societies, marking a pivotal point in the fight for women's rights to vote. The image showcases the vast crowd that gathered for the occasion, stretching out as far as the eye can see. The spectacle of the day was not just limited to the streets below, as the birds-eye perspective offers a unique and captivating view of the event. The intricate details of the procession, from the banners held aloft by the suffragettes to the horse-drawn carriages and the sea of hats and umbrellas, are all on full display. The procession culminated in a meeting at the Albert Hall, where the suffragettes gathered to discuss their next steps in their ongoing campaign for the right to vote. The energy and determination in the air is palpable, as the women's voices united in their quest for change. This photograph is a testament to the power of collective action and the indomitable spirit of those who fought for women's suffrage in Britain. It offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, one that would ultimately lead to the passage of the Representation of the People Act in 1918, giving some women the right to vote for the first time. This image is a powerful reminder of the progress that has been made, and the ongoing struggle for equality and justice.
