EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print is a beautiful representation of the historic moment when Princess Elizabeth of England (later Queen Elizabeth II) and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, exchanged vows on November 20, 1947. The image, titled "ILN Royal Wedding Number November 1947" and designed by Terence Cuneo, graced the cover of the Illustrated London News (ILN) on December 7, 1947. Prince Philip, a Greek prince by birth, was an import to the British royal family, and his marriage to the future queen marked a significant moment in British history. The couple's union brought together two powerful European dynasties, the House of Windsor and the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, and signaled a new chapter in the monarchy. The print depicts the newlyweds leaving Westminster Abbey after their ceremony, with the crowds lining the streets of London to catch a glimpse of the royal couple. The couple is shown in a carriage, waving to the cheering crowds, with the Union Jack flying proudly from the carriage. The image is a testament to the joy and excitement of the occasion, which was celebrated not just in Britain but around the world. Terence Cuneo was a renowned British illustrator, known for his detailed and realistic style. This original print, which measures 21 x 15 inches (53.3 x 38.1 cm), is a beautiful addition to any collection of royal memorabilia or historical prints. The print is dated 1947 and bears the number 11,212, II, and the RWS stamp, indicating that it is an original work by Cuneo and was published by the Royal Society of Painters in Water Colours. This print is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on one of the most significant moments in British history.
