EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of history as King George V's Proclamation was read aloud in London's St. James's Palace on May 6, 1910. The young children in the crowd, dressed in their Sunday best, gather around to watch the proceedings with wide-eyed curiosity and anticipation. The King, newly ascended to the throne following the death of his father, King Edward VII, had only been proclaimed monarch the previous day in Edinburgh, Scotland. The scene is one of orderly chaos, with mounted guards and cavalry maintaining a watchful presence to ensure the safety and control of the crowds. A policeman stands nearby, directing the flow of people and keeping the peace. The King's proclamation, which formally announced his accession to the throne and outlined his duties and responsibilities, was an essential ritual in the transfer of power. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the excitement and pageantry of a royal proclamation in early 20th century London. The children in the crowd, with their eager expressions and focused gazes, serve as a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of history and the importance of tradition.
