EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph taken on November 20, 1947, newlyweds Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip depart from Waterloo Station in London for their honeymoon. The couple, who were married at Westminster Abbey earlier that day, are seen here in high spirits as they prepare to embark on their journey. Princess Elizabeth, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II, is dressed in a beautiful suit of dusky blue designed by Norman Hartnell, accessorized with a hat featuring feather pompoms by Aage Thaarup. The Duke of Edinburgh, wearing his naval uniform, is by her side, and they are accompanied by their beloved corgi. This iconic image captures the joy and excitement of the moment as the newlyweds begin their new life together, marking the start of a long and enduring marriage that would span over seven decades.
