EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1930s, we witness a moment of regal significance as King George V delicately touches the City's Sword at Temple Bar in London. The image, taken by FGH Salusbury and featured in the souvenir book "George V and Edward VIII: A Royal Souvenir" captures a poignant scene during a time of transition for the British monarchy. The king's gesture is laden with symbolism, representing his authority over the city and its people. Dressed in ceremonial attire, King George V stands beside Queen Mary, their presence commanding attention amidst a crowd of onlookers. The intricate details of their garments are highlighted in monochrome elegance. The sword itself becomes an emblematic object within this composition - not only an instrument of power but also evoking notions of warfare and protection. It serves as a reminder that even amidst times of peace, there is always an underlying responsibility to safeguard one's realm. This print transports us back to an era when road transport was still prevalent, depicted by carriages visible in the background. Feathers adorning hats add a touch of sophistication while emphasizing gender roles present during that period. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded not only of Britain's rich royal heritage but also how images can transcend time to offer glimpses into moments that shaped our past.
