George VI ascended the throne upon the abdication of his brother, Edward VIII, on December 11th of 1936. The event was designed to be not only a sacred anointing and formal crowning, but also a public spectacle, which was also planned as a display of the British Empire. The coronation was an important event in the history of television, being the country's first major outside broadcast, although television cameras were not allowed inside the abbey. It was also the first coronation to be filmed, as well as the first to be broadcast. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
