EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and tradition of the Royal Thrones in the House of Lords, London during the early 1910s. The image showcases the thrones used for the state openings of parliament, a centuries-old ceremony that embodies the rich history and heritage of the British monarchy. The thrones, adorned with intricate Gothic styling and elaborate ornamentation, exude an air of regal sophistication. The central throne, where the monarch sits during the ceremony, is crowned with a magnificent canopy, supported by four angels, each holding a symbol of the Evangelists. The footstool beneath the throne is adorned with a lion and a unicorn, the traditional emblems of England and Scotland, respectively. The heraldic style of the thrones is further accentuated by the presence of the lion and unicorn supporters on either side, as well as the ornate carvings and gilding that cover every inch of the furniture. The overall effect is one of opulence and grandeur, a fitting backdrop for the ceremonial opening of parliament. The ceremony itself is a significant moment in the British political calendar, marking the formal beginning of the parliamentary session. The monarch, dressed in their state robes and crown, delivers the Speech from the Throne, outlining the government's agenda for the coming year. The tradition dates back to the 16th century and continues to this day, making it an essential part of the British political and cultural landscape. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of grandeur and tradition, when the monarchy and parliament were inseparable pillars of the British state.
