EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment - "The second oblation by Edward II, Westminster, 25 February 1308". The image is an illustration from the renowned publication, The Illustrated London News Record of The Coronation Service and Ceremony. It showcases the grandeur and solemnity of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra's coronation in London during the early 20th century. In this particular scene, we witness a remarkable display of religious devotion as King Edward II offers his second oblation at Westminster Abbey. Standing tall in his regal attire, adorned with a majestic crown and fur-trimmed robes, he holds a candelabra with lit candles symbolizing enlightenment. Surrounding him are bishops and archbishops dressed in their ecclesiastical garments. The atmosphere exudes reverence as everyone present pays homage to their monarch. The intricate details captured by the artist transport us back to medieval Britain - from the ornate crozier held by one bishop to the cushioned seat upon which King Edward II stands. This photograph not only documents an important royal event but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of religion within society. It reminds us of our shared history while showcasing the pageantry associated with monarchy during this era.
