EDITORS COMMENTS
The Royal visits to Aldershot, captured in this historic print from 25 August 1917, depict a significant moment in British history. Pictured here are George VI (Albert Frederick Arthur George), the ruler of Britain from 1936 to 1952 and the last emperor of India from 1936 to 1947. He is accompanied by his beloved wife, Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes-Lyon, also known as the Queen Mother or the Queen Mum. George VI's reign was marked by immense challenges and pivotal events such as World War II and the decolonization of India. This photograph serves as a reminder of his leadership during these turbulent times. Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon played an integral role in supporting her husband throughout his reign. As mother to their daughter Elizabeth II, she would go on to witness her become one of the longest-reigning monarchs in British history. The visit itself holds great significance for Aldershot, a town renowned for its military connections. It symbolizes the royal family's commitment to honoring and engaging with armed forces personnel who have dedicated their lives to serving their country. Preserved through time, this print captures not only a momentous occasion but also highlights the enduring legacy of George VI and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon within British royalty.
