EDITORS COMMENTS
A Regal Tribute: Standard Motor Company's Homage to the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II Amidst the grandeur and pageantry of the historic Westminster Abbey, the Standard Motor Company paid a fitting tribute to the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. This evocative advertisement, a loyal and symbolic gesture, showcases a vibrant colour photograph of the Coronation Chair, the seat of monarchical power and tradition. The Coronation Chair, a cherished symbol of the British monarchy, has been a part of the coronation ceremony since the reign of King Edward III in the 14th century. The chair, adorned with intricate carvings and rich fabrics, has borne witness to the coronations of every monarch since then, including the recent one of Queen Elizabeth II. The advertisement, released by the Standard Motor Company, was not an attempt at commercial exploitation but a heartfelt tribute to the occasion. The company, in its own humble way, sought to celebrate the grandeur and significance of the Coronation, reflecting the collective pride and joy of the British people. The accompanying poem, inspired by the works of the renowned Romantic poet William Wordsworth, further emphasizes the spiritual and emotional connection between the people and their monarchy. The lines, "And all around, the ancient Abbey's walls, / In splendour clad, in solemn state, / The throne of England's monarch rises high, / A symbol of her people's faith and trust," encapsulate the essence of the occasion and the sentiments of the time. This poignant advertisement, a testament to the enduring bond between the people and their monarchy, stands as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that define the British monarchical system.
