EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant atmosphere of Fleet Street in the early 20th century. Taken by photographer Katherine MacFee, it showcases the grandeur and excitement surrounding the coronation of King George V and Queen Mary on June 22nd, 1911. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, our eyes are drawn to the magnificent Temple Bar memorial standing tall in the distance. The street is adorned with an array of colorful bunting and decorations, proudly displaying patriotic flags that flutter in anticipation of the royal event. Intriguingly, amidst this bustling scene, a woman accompanied by two young boys can be seen attempting to navigate their way across the busy road. Their presence adds a touch of humanity to this otherwise regal setting, reminding us that life continues even during momentous occasions. MacFee's intention was clear - to document London's coronation decorations for posterity. This photograph serves as a time capsule transporting us back over a century ago when pomp and circumstance filled every corner of Fleet Street. Today, we can appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into an era long gone yet forever immortalized through photography. Let this image transport you back in time as you marvel at both its beauty and cultural importance within British history.
