EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable advertisement from 1911, known as "His Masters Voice". The creator of this iconic piece remains unknown, yet its impact on the arts and advertising industry is undeniable. The advertisement features a hornless model of a gramophone, specifically designed to commemorate the grand occasion of Coronation Day - the crowning ceremony of King George V and Queen Mary of Teck. Held at Westminster Abbey in London on June 22nd, 1911, this historic event marked an important milestone for the United Kingdom. Taken from "The Graphic" coronation edition published on June 27th, 1911, this ad exudes patriotism and celebrates the joyous atmosphere surrounding this royal event. It beautifully captures the essence of Edwardian era leisure and entertainment with its depiction of music being played through a record player. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to a bygone era filled with celebration and excitement. This image not only represents an ingenious marketing strategy but also serves as a testament to British pride during that time. Preserved by The Print Collector in their collection titled "Unknown" it reminds us how art can transcend time and evoke emotions even after more than a century has passed. Let us cherish these glimpses into our rich history that continue to inspire generations with their beauty and significance.
