EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image graces the front cover of The Illustrated London News, published on February 7, 1936, following the death of King George V. The monarch, who reigned from 1910 until his passing at the age of 70, is depicted in military uniform, a fitting tribute to his long-standing commitment to the British armed forces. George V's uniform is adorned with an impressive array of epaulettes and medals, symbolizing his various military appointments and honors. The King, who served in the Royal Navy during the late 19th century, was an ardent supporter of the military throughout his reign. He was the Colonel-in-Chief of several regiments and held the position of Admiral of the Fleet. The solemn expression on George V's face conveys the gravity of the moment, as the nation mourns the loss of its beloved monarch. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the King's dedication to his duties and his unwavering commitment to the British monarchy. The Illustrated London News, a prestigious weekly publication, captured this poignant moment in history, providing its readers with a visual tribute to the late King. The image is a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling and the role of the media in recording and commemorating significant historical events.
