EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in June 1912, the Earl and Countess of Plymouth are seen greeting King George V and Queen Mary outside the University College in Cardiff. The Earl, who is identified as the Lord Lieutenant of Glamorganshire, proudly welcomes the monarchs to the Welsh capital. The Earl and Countess are elegantly dressed in formal attire, with the Earl wearing a top hat and the Countess sporting a grand hat adorned with a feather. King George V and Queen Mary's visit to Cardiff was an important moment in the city's history. The royal couple's arrival marked the opening of the new University College, which had recently been established to provide higher education opportunities for the people of Wales. The University College, which is now known as Cardiff University, has played a significant role in the cultural and educational landscape of the city ever since. The Earl and Countess of Plymouth were prominent figures in Welsh society at the time. The Earl held the position of Lord Lieutenant of Glamorganshire, which made him the representative of the monarch in the county. The Earl and Countess were known for their support of various charitable causes and community initiatives, and their presence at the royal visit added to the prestige of the event. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the grandeur and pageantry of a royal visit to Wales over a century ago. The image is a testament to the rich history and traditions of Wales, and serves as a reminder of the important role that the monarchy has played in shaping the country's cultural and social fabric.
