EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment when King George V and Queen Mary, resplendent in their naval uniforms, arrive on board the battleship HMS Queen Elizabeth during the First World War. The year is circa 1917, and the royal visit was an important morale-boosting event for the British Navy as the war raged on. As the King and Queen make their way onto the deck, they are greeted by a grand salute from the crew, their respectful gesture a testament to the monarch's leadership and the unity of the British forces. The King, who served as First Sea Lord from 1911 to 1914 before ascending to the throne, was intimately familiar with the workings of the navy and understood the importance of maintaining the fleet's morale during the trying times of war. The HMS Queen Elizabeth, a formidable battleship of the Dreadnought class, looms majestically in the background. With its powerful guns and imposing presence, it stood as a symbol of the British Empire's might and determination to defend its interests. The King's visit served as a reminder that the monarchy was not only a symbolic figurehead but an active participant in the war effort, inspiring the sailors and soldiers to continue their fight for victory. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the close relationship between the British monarchy and its armed forces during the First World War, a time when unity and resilience were crucial for the nation's survival.
