EDITORS COMMENTS
"This striking photograph captures the regal presence of King George V during his golden jubilee celebrations in 1936. The monarch, dressed in full military uniform, exudes an air of authority and dignity as he stands among the players of the Royal Household Cavalry. The year was 1865 when George Frederick Ernest Albert was born at Marlborough House in London, the second son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. He ascended to the throne on January 6, 1910, following the death of his mother. George V's reign was marked by significant historical events, including the end of World War I and the establishment of the Irish Free State. The jubilee year of 1935-1936 marked his 50 years on the throne, making him the longest-reigning monarch in British history at the time. The golden jubilee was celebrated with great fanfare, including a series of public events and processions throughout the United Kingdom and the Dominions. In this photograph, King George V is seen surrounded by the red uniforms of the Royal Household Cavalry, adding a sense of tradition and history to the image. The king's connection to the military was strong, having served as a naval cadet and later becoming an admiral of the fleet. This photograph is a testament to the monarch's long and storied reign, as well as his deep connection to the military and the British people." This photograph is a historical treasure from the Mary Evans Picture Library, providing a glimpse into the past and the life of one of Britain's most revered monarchs. It is a must-have for any history buff, collector, or enthusiast of royalty and military history. The high-quality print is perfect for framing and displaying in a home or office, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. This is not a commercial use image.
