EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a solemn moment in history - the lying in state of King Edward VII at Buckingham Palace's Throne Room in London, 1910. The image is taken from "The Story of Seventy Momentous Years, the Life and Times of King George V" edited by Harold Wheeler and published by Odhams Press Ltd in 1937. In this powerful scene, we see a guard standing watch over the deceased monarch as he lies on display. The atmosphere is somber, with the grandeur of the palace serving as a backdrop to this poignant moment. The photograph evokes a sense of reverence for both the king and his legacy. King Edward VII was an influential figure who reigned from 1901 until his death in 1910. He played a significant role during World War I, leading Britain through challenging times. This image serves as a reminder not only of his passing but also of the impact he had on his nation. The monochrome composition adds depth to the photograph, emphasizing its historical significance. It transports us back to early 20th-century England and allows us to witness this important event firsthand. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded that even great leaders must eventually face their mortality. Yet their legacies live on through photographs like these – capturing moments frozen in time for future generations to reflect upon with respect and admiration.
