EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Ampulla (or Golden Eagle) and the Spoon" from the book "The Crowning of The King and Queen" published by Evans Brothers Limited in London, 1937. The image depicts a close-up view of a stunning golden eagle-shaped container, known as an ampulla, alongside a beautifully crafted spoon. These ceremonial objects hold great significance during coronation events. Intricately designed with vibrant colors on a green background, this photograph captures the essence of regality and tradition. The ampulla symbolizes divine favor bestowed upon the monarch, while the spoon represents anointing with holy oil during the crowning ceremony. This particular piece holds historical importance as it relates to Albert Frederick Arthur George Saxe Coburg Gotha, also known as King George VI of Great Britain. It is believed that his wife, Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes Lyon (later referred to as Queen Elizabeth), played a significant role in his reign. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the rich heritage and cultural traditions associated with British royalty. This image serves as a testament to their enduring legacy and offers us a glimpse into one of history's most momentous occasions – the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth I.
