From the paintings by Fortunio Matania (1881 - 1963). An Italian artist noted for his realistic portrayal of World War I trench warfare and of a wide range of historical subjects. At the age of 20, Matania began working in Paris for Illustration Francaise and, in 1902, was invited to London to cover the Coronation of Edward VII for The Graphic. Matania would subsequently cover every major event – marriage, christening, funeral and Coronation – of British royalty up to the coronation of Queen Elizabeth in 1953.
Published in The Illustrated London News Coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Record Number, 1937
