EDITORS COMMENTS
An iconic moment captured in time: Lady Diana Spencer, radiant and full of grace, joins her soon-to-be husband HRH Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales, along with Queen Elizabeth II and the entire Royal Family on the grand balcony of Buckingham Palace. It was a historic day for Lady Diana as she experienced her first Trooping of The Colour ceremony. However, amidst the joyous celebration, an unthinkable incident unfolded. A 17-year-old man named Marcus Serjeant aimed a replica gun directly at Queen Elizabeth II as she rode past the cheering crowds on horseback. This shocking act momentarily cast a shadow over the festivities but thankfully resulted in no harm to Her Majesty. The photograph itself captures both the jubilant atmosphere and underlying tension that marked this significant event in British history. Lady Diana's presence exudes elegance and poise while standing beside her future husband who would become King one day. Taken on June 13th, 1981 by Carl Briun, this print from Memory Lane Prints serves as a powerful reminder of not only Lady Diana's introduction into royal life but also the vulnerability faced by those who hold such esteemed positions within society. This image is an enduring symbol of love, duty, and resilience - qualities that would come to define Princess Diana throughout her extraordinary journey.
