EDITORS COMMENTS
At Home with the Bristlewoods: A Bittersweet Coronation Celebration, 1937 In this evocative photograph from the Illustrated London News archive, we find ourselves peering into the window of the humble abode of the Bristlewoods family, as they prepare for the grand occasion of the Coronation of King George VI. The year is 1937, and the anticipation of the royal event has reached a fever pitch on the streets of Britain. Mr. Bristlewoods, clad in workman's attire and wearing a worried expression, can be seen precariously perched on a ladder outside his house, determinedly putting up bunting to join in the national Coronation festivities. His wife, standing behind the window, watches in horror as her husband braves the elements, beads of sweat forming on his brow. The Coronation of King George VI was an occasion of great national pride and unity, a time when the people of Britain came together to celebrate their monarch and the continuity of the monarchy. However, for the Bristlewoods family, the preparations for the event bring with them a sense of unease and perhaps even dread. The reasons for their apprehension remain a mystery, but the image serves as a poignant reminder that even during the most joyous of occasions, there can be undercurrents of anxiety and uncertainty. This photograph, taken from the extensive collection of historical images at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to ponder the stories and emotions that lie beneath the surface of this seemingly ordinary moment in history.
