Four duchesses approach with the canopy. In 1937, they were of Norfolk, Rutland, Buccleuch and Queensberry, and Roxburghe. The canopy is held over Queen Elizabeth. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Cosmo Gordon Lang, crowns Queen Elizabeth. Queen Elizabeth holds the Queen's Sceptre in her right hand. The Archbishop places the Queen's Ivory Rod into Queen Elizabeth's left hand.
