EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history at St Asaph Cathedral, Wales. It showcases the enthronement of Dr AG Edwards, the first Archbishop of Wales on 1 June 1920. The image exudes an air of solemnity as it portrays a procession led by the distinguished archbishop. The scene is filled with participants ranging from altar boys to children, boys, adults, and men. Each individual plays their part in this grand ceremony that marks a milestone for the Church of Wales. Draped in his ecclesiastical vestments, Archbishop Edwards holds a crook symbolizing his authority as he walks towards the ornate altar. The clergyman's mitre atop his head signifies his high rank within the church hierarchy while also emphasizing his role as prelate. Surrounding him are fellow clergymen who share in this historic occasion. Alfieri's masterful monochrome composition adds depth and intensity to this image, highlighting every detail from the archbishop's wig to each participant's expression. This photograph serves not only as a visual documentation but also evokes emotions tied to faith and tradition. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Alfieri during Europeana Photography era, we are reminded of the enduring power of religion and its ability to bring communities together under one belief system - here represented by Anglican Christianity in Wales.
