EDITORS COMMENTS
This front cover of The Bystander magazine's Royal Wedding Number commemorates the marriage of Prince Albert, Duke of York, and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, which took place on 26th April 1923 at Westminster Abbey. The illustration showcases a whimsical scene of Cupid soaring in an aeroplane, painting a heart in the sky above the grand abbey. As the State Coach passes beneath, confetti rains down, symbolizing the joy and celebration that surrounded the royal event. The image exudes romance and pomp, encapsulating the historical significance of the union between Prince Albert, who would later become King George VI, and his Duchess, later known as the Queen Mother or "Mum." This cover, filled with love and pageantry, remains a testament to the enduring allure of royal weddings and the power of romantic love.
