EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Coronation Chair, also known as St. Edward's Chair or King Edward's Chair, a significant and ancient piece of British monarchy history. The Chair, which dates back to around 1297, has been the ceremonial throne used for the coronation of British monarchs since 1308. It is named after King Edward I, who brought the chair from its original location in Westminster Abbey to Wales during his reign. Beneath the Chair lies the famous Stone of Scone, also known as the Stone of Destiny or Lia Fail. Tradition holds that this ancient stone, believed to have once been the pillow of Jacob, was used at the coronation of Irish kings at Tara prior to its removal to Scotland. The Stone was taken from Scone, Perthshire, Scotland, in 1298 by Edward I, adding another layer of history to this already rich and storied piece of furniture. The image captures the essence of the Coronation Chair and the Stone of Scone's historical significance. The Chair, with its intricate carvings and ornate design, stands proudly as a symbol of the British monarchy's long and storied history. The Stone of Scone, resting beneath the Chair, adds an air of mystery and tradition, reminding us of the ancient rituals and ceremonies that have shaped the monarchy for centuries. This photograph, taken in 1937, offers a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich history and tradition that surrounds the British monarchy. The Coronation Chair and the Stone of Scone continue to be an important part of the coronation ceremony, serving as a connection to the past and a symbol of continuity and tradition.
