EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of England's proclamation of the new King George V. Taken from Le Petit Journal, a renowned French publication, this illustration showcases the grandeur and significance of this event. The image portrays a scene at St. James Palace in London, where soldiers in their majestic military uniforms stand proudly on horseback. The soldiers wear bicorn hats adorned with plumes, while their horses exude strength and elegance. Banners flutter in the wind as they announce the arrival of King George V. Amidst this regal display, an army officer reads out the proclamation to a gathered crowd. Bayonets glisten under the sunlight, adding to the sense of power and authority emanating from these guardsmen. Their busby hats and bearskin caps further emphasize their role as protectors of royalty. Intricate details are captured by this color lithograph - every feathered herald stands tall as they participate in this ceremonial celebration marking a new era for Britain. This momentous occasion follows upon Edward VII's passing earlier that year. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from history, we cannot help but be transported back to 1910 when excitement filled the air and British citizens celebrated their new monarch with great pride and joy.
