EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a pivotal moment during the fairytale wedding of Prince George, Duke of Kent, and Princess Marina of Greece, held at Westminster Abbey in 1934. The newlyweds, dressed in their regal attire, are seen kneeling before the Archbishop of Canterbury as he pronounces the benediction over them. The Duke, wearing the uniform of the Royal Air Force, and the Greek Princess, with her stunning four-and-a-half yard train, are surrounded by the grandeur of the Abbey. The bridegroom's elder brother, the Duke of York (later King George VI), and his daughter, Princess Elizabeth (future Queen Elizabeth II), hold the train of the bride's dress. The Archbishop of York and the Dean of Westminster, both attired in ornate copes, stand to the sides, adding to the solemnity of the occasion. The benediction marked the conclusion of the wedding service, which united the royal couple in matrimony. The ceremony was a grand affair, attended by members of the British and Greek royal families, as well as dignitaries and high-ranking officials from around the world. This historic moment in the annals of royal history is beautifully preserved in this exquisite photograph, which transports us back to a time of elegance, tradition, and the joyous celebration of a royal marriage.
