Catalogued as *Royal Progress, London, 1911*, this glass negative comes from a title the Bain News Service recorded itself, and that data is unverified, so the exact occasion is uncertain. London in 1911 was full of ceremony, most notably the coronation of King George V that June, when processions moved through the city and crowds gathered along the route. George Grantham Bain's agency supplied photographs of such events to newspapers, and its glass negatives preserve the public life of the period in fine detail.
