EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration from The Bystander special wedding number, dated 1923, depicts the electric atmosphere surrounding the royal wedding of the Duke of York and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon. The excitement is palpable as the crowd of well-wishers, dressed in their finest attire, eagerly try to catch a glimpse of the bride. The pageantry and spectacle of the event are on full display, with the Guards standing tall in their bearskin helmets, adding to the grandeur of the occasion. Amidst the sea of hats and upturned faces, one young girl is lifted up by a kind stranger, offering her a better view of the royal procession. The sense of community and shared excitement is evident, as the crowd comes together to celebrate this momentous occasion. The royal wedding of the Duke of York and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, held on April 26, 1923, was a significant event in British history. The future King George VI and Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother's marriage marked a new chapter in the monarchy, and this illustration captures the essence of the joy and anticipation that surrounded the nuptials. The intricate details of the illustration, from the textures of the clothing to the expressions on the faces of the onlookers, transport us back in time to this historic moment. This image is a testament to the power of human connection and the enduring allure of royal pageantry.
