EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the historic moment during the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth on May 12, 1937, as they make their way out of Westminster Abbey in the magnificent State Coach. Built for King George III in 1762, this coach has been a proud symbol of British pageantry and tradition, carrying every monarch to their coronation since that of George IV. The State Coach, a masterpiece of 18th-century craftsmanship, is adorned with intricate gold and silver decorations, rich velvet upholstery, and magnificent livery. Drawn by six magnificent horses, the coach epitomizes the pomp and pageantry of the coronation procession. The regal couple, dressed in their resplendent robes and adorned with the symbols of their newfound authority, sit proudly inside, waving to the cheering crowds. The coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth was a momentous occasion, taking place during a time of great change and uncertainty for the British monarchy and the nation. The pomp and spectacle of the procession served as a powerful reminder of the continuity and resilience of the British monarchy and its deep historical roots.
