EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Queen Mary (1867-1953), the consort of King George V, and the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VIII (1894-1972), are seen in an open carriage on their way to a royal visit to Kensington, London, in 1911. The image captures a moment of regal splendor and tradition, as the couple, dressed in their finest attire, make their way through the streets of the British capital. Queen Mary, wearing a grand hat adorned with feathers and a long, flowing mourning veil, sits elegantly beside her husband. The Prince of Wales, wearing a top hat and military uniform, gazes intently at the crowd that has gathered to catch a glimpse of the royal procession. The couple's entourage includes coachmen, flunkeys, and other attendants, all dressed in their liveries and uniforms, adding to the grandeur of the scene. The open carriage, with its ornate design and intricate details, is a testament to the opulence and craftsmanship of the era. The image offers a glimpse into the history of the British monarchy and the traditions that surround it, as well as the fashion and style of the early 20th century. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the role of the monarchy in British society and the importance of tradition and ceremony in the lives of the royal family. The image is a valuable historical document, capturing a moment in time that has been preserved for future generations to appreciate and learn from. Overall, this photograph is a stunning example of the rich history and culture of the British monarchy, and a testament to the enduring allure of royalty and the traditions that surround it.
