EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment when King George VI officially opened the Festival of Britain on the steps of St. Paul's Cathedral in the City of London on Thursday, 3 May 1951. The monarch, dressed in formal attire, is seen addressing the large crowd gathered below, surrounded by members of the royal family and politicians. The classical architecture of St. Paul's Cathedral, a symbol of British resilience and continuity, provides a fitting backdrop for the occasion. In the foreground, Pikemen of the Honourable Artillery Company and members of the 326 (City of London) Battalion, Women's Royal Army Corps, stand at attention as part of the Guard of Honour. The image offers a glimpse into the grandeur and pageantry of the era, transporting us back to the post-war 1950s and the optimistic spirit of a nation rebuilding and looking towards a brighter future.
