EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking front cover of the Daily Sketch magazine, dated June 3rd, 1953, captures a poignant moment from the historic coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The image shows Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, paying homage to his wife, the newly crowned monarch, inside the hallowed halls of Westminster Abbey. The sacred ceremony, which took place on June 2nd, marked the official installation of Queen Elizabeth II as the Queen of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and other Commonwealth realms. The headlines on the cover, "Happy & Glorious!" reflect the jubilant mood of the nation as they welcomed their new Queen. The coronation, which was broadcast live on television for the first time, drew an estimated 27 million viewers in the UK alone. The Daily Sketch, along with other media outlets, provided comprehensive coverage of the event, capturing the essence of this significant moment in British history. The photograph, taken on the day after the coronation, shows Prince Philip in his regal attire, bending the knee in fealty to his wife, symbolizing his loyalty and commitment to her reign. The image, along with the headlines, encapsulates the joy, excitement, and sense of national pride that surrounded the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in the 1950s. This front cover serves as a testament to the power of photography and journalism in recording and preserving historical moments for future generations.
