1953 Coronation Gallacher Terence Terry Elizabeth
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of grandeur and history as members of the royal party make their way into the hallowed halls of Westminster Abbey for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II on June 2, 1953. The regal atmosphere is palpable as the attendees, dressed in their finest formal attire, walk with poised composure, their expressions a mix of anticipation and reverence. At the forefront of the procession, the Queen, resplendent in her intricately designed coronation gown and adorned with the Crown of St. Edward, leads the way, her countenance serene and determined. Her consort, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, follows closely behind, his hand gently guiding her as they ascend the steps of the historic abbey. Among the other distinguished figures in the photograph are the Duke of Edinburgh's brother, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, and his wife, Princess Marina, Duke of Kent; the Duke of Norfolk, who served as Lord Chamberlain during the coronation; and the Duke of Connaught, who was the Queen's grandfather. The scene inside Westminster Abbey was one of awe and wonder, as the monarch took her rightful place on the throne, surrounded by the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy. This photograph offers a glimpse into that momentous day, a day that marked the beginning of a new era for the British people and the world.
