EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the poignant moment of unveiling and dedication of the Cenotaph War Memorial in Whitehall, London, on Armistice Day, 11th November 1920. The image shows His Majesty King George V, dressed in full regalia, standing before the monument as he places a wreath at its base. The Cenotaph, a symbolic empty tomb, was installed as a tribute to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice during the First World War and later conflicts. The occasion marked the end of the commemorative two-minute silence, which began at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, signifying the end of hostilities in 1918. The tradition of the monarch laying a wreath at the Cenotaph continues to this day, making it a significant annual event in the UK's remembrance calendar. This powerful photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans, offers a glimpse into the solemn and reverent atmosphere of this historic moment in British history.
