EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in British history - the coronation procession of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. Taken from an elevated vantage point at the Citadel, the image showcases the grandeur and excitement that filled The Mall in City of Westminster, Greater London. As one's eyes wander across the frame, it is impossible not to be drawn to the vast crowds lining both sides of The Mall. Faces full of anticipation and awe are visible as people eagerly await a glimpse of their beloved queen passing by. The atmosphere is electric with celebration, as flags wave high above heads and cheers fill the air. The procession itself is a sight to behold. Majestic soldiers on horseback lead the way, their uniforms immaculate and gleaming under the sunlight. Behind them follows an array of beautifully adorned carriages carrying members of royalty and dignitaries who partake in this historic ceremony. Carlton House Terrace stands proudly along The Mall, providing a stunning backdrop for this momentous occasion. Its elegant architecture adds a touch of regality to an already magnificent scene. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder not only of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation but also reflects upon Britain's rich heritage and its enduring fascination with royalty.
