EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1910, as we delve into the legend of the Egyptian origin of the Stone of Scone. A relic steeped in destiny and myth, this stone holds great significance in British history, serving as the coronation seat for all sovereigns since Edward I, with Queen Mary being the sole exception. The image transports us to an era where ancient tales intertwine with modern traditions. The Stone of Scone stands proudly at its center, exuding an aura of mystery and power. Its origins trace back to ancient Egypt, a land renowned for its enigmatic wonders. As we gaze upon it, one cannot help but wonder about the journey it undertook before finding its place within British royalty. The Egyptians believed that this stone possessed extraordinary qualities - perhaps even divine attributes - making it a fitting symbol for crowning monarchs. It is through these beliefs that a legendary tale was born; a tale that has been passed down through generations. Hilary Jane Morgan's skillful capture allows us to witness not only a physical object but also an intangible connection between two distant cultures. It invites contemplation on how myths and legends shape our understanding of history and identity. In this photograph lies more than just an artifact; it encapsulates centuries worth of tradition and symbolism. It serves as a reminder that beneath every crown lies stories woven by time itself – stories waiting patiently to be discovered by those who seek them out.
