EDITORS COMMENTS
King George V, the beloved monarch of Great Britain, captured in a historic moment as he broadcasts to the vast British Empire on Christmas Day in 1935. This illustration from 'George V and Edward VIII, A Royal Souvenir' by FGH Salusbury brings to life the solemnity and grandeur of this annual tradition. In this colorised print, King George V stands tall with his distinguished presence. His regal attire is complemented by a neatly trimmed beard that adds an air of wisdom to his countenance. With radio equipment before him, he prepares to deliver his heartfelt Christmas message to millions across the empire. The scene is set at Sandringham, where generations of royals have celebrated Christmas. The king's surroundings exude warmth and elegance, reflecting the festive spirit that fills every corner of this stately home. As we gaze upon this portrait, we are reminded not only of King George V's role as sovereign but also his deep religious convictions. Christianity played a significant part in his life and reign; thus, it comes as no surprise that he chose this sacred occasion to address his subjects. This image encapsulates both the power and humility embodied by King George V—a man who dedicated himself wholeheartedly to serving his people during one of Britain's most challenging periods in history.
