EDITORS COMMENTS
In this and purely fictional image, King Edward VIII, later known as the Duke of Windsor (1894-1972), is depicted in all his regal glory at his supposed Coronation in May 1936. The monarch, dressed in the grandest of royal attire, dons the iconic ermine-trimmed robe and icy-white coronation mantle, symbolizing his divine right to rule. His majesty holds the ancient and sacred regalia of the British monarchy, including the sceptre adorned with precious gems and the orb representing the power to rule over the kingdoms of England and Ireland. The Coronation of King Edward VIII would have been an unforgettable event in the annals of British history, filled with pageantry, ceremonial splendor, and regal pomp. Yet, this image exists only in the realm of imagination, as the King abdicated the throne just months before his scheduled Coronation in December 1936. Despite the historical inaccuracy, this impression of the Coronation of King Edward VIII remains a captivating reminder of the majesty and grandeur of the British monarchy. The image evokes a sense of awe and wonder, transporting us back to a time when kings and queens ruled with unquestioned authority and the world bore witness to the pageantry and regal splendor of their coronations.

The image also highlights the solemn and reverent atmosphere of the Coronation ceremony, with the King standing before his subjects, ready to take the sacred oath and pledge to uphold the laws and traditions of the realm. In conclusion, this fictional photograph of King Edward VIII's Coronation is a testament to the enduring allure of royal history and the power of the imagination. It invites us to explore the rich tapestry of the British monarchy and the fascinating stories that lie within its pages.
