In this historic photograph, taken outside Buckingham Palace in London during December 1936, we see two distinguished gentlemen, Colonel Sir William Waldron and Lt.-Colonel Sir John Laurie, basking in the afterglow of a momentous occasion. The two men, both retiring Sheriffs of the City of London, have just been knighted by King George V. Sir William Waldron, on the left, wears the red robe and white edged velvet collar of a Knight Bachelor, while Sir John Laurie, on the right, wears the blue robe and ermine trim of a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath. Both men exude an air of pride and satisfaction, having reached the pinnacle of their respective careers in the City of London. The scene outside Buckingham Palace is one of grandeur and importance. The palace's ornate façade, with its intricate carvings and columns, serves as a fitting backdrop for this significant moment in the lives of these two esteemed individuals.
