EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph from the Terence Gallacher Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, we witness the historic moment of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation on June 2, 1953. The scene unfolds outside the Colonial Office in Queen Victoria Street, London, where a BBC camera stands proudly on a dais, ready to capture the grand event for millions of viewers across Britain and beyond. The anticipation in the air is palpable as the crowd gathers, their faces filled with excitement and a sense of national pride. The second day of the coronation ceremonies, this day marked the official anointing and crowning of the new monarch, who would go on to reign for over 69 years. Terry, the unassuming BBC cameraman, focuses intently on the entrance to Westminster Abbey, where the queen will soon emerge in all her regal splendor. His camera, poised and ready, is a symbol of the media's role in documenting and sharing this momentous occasion with the world. The 1950s, a time of optimism and recovery from the hardships of World War II, saw the birth of a new era for the British monarchy and the country as a whole. This photograph captures the essence of that spirit, encapsulating the sense of unity, pride, and hope that defined the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. As we look at this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to experience a piece of history that continues to resonate with us today. The BBC camera on the dais in front of the Colonial Office serves as a reminder of the power of media and its ability to connect us with significant moments in our collective past.
