EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a young and dashing Prince Albert, Duke of York (later King George VI) on his wedding day in 1923. The Duke, who would ascend to the throne in 1936, chose to wear the uniform of a Group Commander in the Royal Air Force for the occasion. The decision to don this uniform was significant, as the Duke was an avid supporter of the RAF and had even served as its Chief Commander in Chief from 1921 to 1936. The wedding took place on April 26, 1923, at Westminster Abbey, where the Duke married Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon. The couple's union was a source of great joy and relief for the British people, who had been reeling from the abdication of King Edward VIII just a few months prior. The Duke and Duchess of York's marriage was seen as a fresh start for the monarchy, and their relationship was marked by a deep and enduring love. This photograph is a testament to the Duke's military prowess and his commitment to the RAF. The uniform, with its distinctive insignia and braids, adds a sense of regality and grandeur to the image. The Duke's stern yet confident expression and the crispness of his uniform convey a sense of duty and responsibility, reflecting the weight of the responsibilities that he would soon bear as King. This photograph is a historical treasure, offering a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the life and times of one of Britain's most beloved monarchs. It is a reminder of the rich history and traditions of the British monarchy and the important role that the military has played in shaping its history.
