EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - King George V entering the Delhi Durbar for his Coronation on 12th December 1911. The Durbar, also known as the Imperial Durbar, was a grand assembly held at Coronation Park in Delhi, India to commemorate the coronation of British monarchs. This particular Durbar was unique as it was attended by the sovereign himself. In this image, we witness King George V making his majestic entrance into the court of Delhi on horseback. Dressed in regal attire and accompanied by an impressive guard of honor, he exudes power and authority. The soldiers stand tall and proud, rifles at their sides, presenting arms to pay homage to their king. The photograph is expertly captured by Ernest Brooks from Memory Lane Prints. His attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this historical moment from over a century ago. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back to an era when royalty reigned supreme and empires spanned across continents. This print serves as a reminder of Britain's imperial past and its influence on countries like India during that time period. It encapsulates both the grandeur of royal ceremonies and the military might that supported them.
