This print captures a significant moment in history - the consecration of the Bishop of Willesden at St Paul's Cathedral on July 25,1929. The Reverend Guy Vernon Smith VC stands tall and proud, adorned in his majestic robes as he takes this solemn step towards his new role within the Anglican Church. The image transports us back to the vibrant era between the wars, known as the roaring twenties or nineteen twenties. It is a testament to both faith and tradition, showcasing an important event that took place amidst a rapidly changing world.
