Watch Coronation of Their Majesties King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, First Scene

Overview

The Coronation Day parade in London, on 9 August 1902. The first of two shots taken from the same camera position for the British Mutoscope and Biograph Company. It gives us crisp, clear images of the military great and good - thanks to the large-format 68mm film stock - but it's the second shot, not this one, that includes a glimpse of the King in his carriage.
