King George V and Queen Mary grace the Henley Regatta on a majestic state barge, 1912
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1912, we witness a momentous event as King George V and Queen Mary of Great Britain make their grand appearance at the Henley Regatta. The regal couple is seen aboard an exquisite state barge, gliding gracefully along the tranquil waters of the River Thames in England. The scene is ablaze with vibrant colors; bright red flags fluttering proudly in the breeze adorn both sides of the boat. This magnificent display symbolizes British royalty at its finest. As spectators line the riverbanks, excitement fills the air as rowing boats race past in fierce competition. This historic image captures not only a sporting event but also a significant chapter in British history. King George V's reign marked an era of great change and progress for Britain during the early 20th century. The Illustrated London News Silver Jubilee Record Number from 1935 immortalized this royal visit to Henley-on-Thames, showcasing it as one of many notable events that occurred during his silver jubilee celebrations. With its rich historical context and stunning visual composition, this print transports us back to a time when regattas were not just about sport but also served as platforms for displaying national pride and celebrating royal heritage.
