EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the historic archives, a large and enthusiastic crowd of loyal citizens of Inverness, Scotland, gather around a city fountain to celebrate the marriage of Prince George, Duke of York, to Princess May of Teck. The royal wedding took place on July 6, 1893, and the scene captures the jubilant mood of the local community as they come together to rejoice in the union of their future monarch and his bride. The Duke of York, later King George V (1865-1936), and Princess May, later Queen Mary (1867-1953), were a popular couple, and their wedding was a cause for great celebration throughout the United Kingdom and its colonies. In this image, the crowd is seen singing God Save the Queen with great fervor, their voices carrying through the streets of Inverness as they express their loyalty and devotion to the monarchy. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, with the crowd dressed in their finest costumes, adding to the festive atmosphere. The men wear top hats and suits, while the women don elegant dresses and bonnets. The scene is further enhanced by the ornate decorations adorning the fountain and the surrounding buildings, which add to the sense of grandeur and occasion. This photograph is a testament to the deep connection between the monarchy and the people, and the enduring power of tradition and ceremony to bring communities together. It is a scene that could have been replicated in towns and cities across the country, as the people of the United Kingdom came together to celebrate the marriage of their future king and queen.
