EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history - HM Queen Elizabeth II with her Maids of Honour during her Coronation on the 2nd of June, 1953. Taken by renowned artist Cecil Beaton in the elegant Green Drawing Room at Buckingham Palace, this image showcases the regal beauty and grace of Queen Elizabeth II. Following the tradition set by Queen Victoria, instead of pages bearing her velvet train throughout the ceremony, Queen Elizabeth II chose six Maids of Honour to accompany her. These distinguished ladies included Lady Moyra Hamilton (now Lady Moyra Campbell), Lady Anne Coke (now The Rt Hon The Lady Glenconner), Lady Rosemary Spencer-Churchill (now Lady Rosemary Muir), Lady Mary Baillie-Hamilton (now Lady Mary Russell), Lady Jane Heathcote-Drummond-Willoughby (now The Rt Hon The Baroness Willoughby de Eresby), and Lady Jane Vane-Tempest-Stewart (now The Rt Hon The Lady Rayne). Dressed in their magnificent robes and crowns, these women exude an air of elegance befitting such a grand occasion. Their presence adds depth and significance to this group portrait that immortalizes a pivotal moment for both Britain and its beloved monarch. Cecil Beaton's masterful composition captures not only the physical beauty but also the historical importance of this event. This print serves as a reminder of Her Majesty's enduring reign as well as an homage to those who played a part in making it truly majestic.
