It's the sort of thing that would have appeared on a tea towel or a souvenir tin in the years around the Coronation, when the Guards were the shorthand image of London for visitors and locals alike. It still works, largely because the subject hasn't changed a bit — the Foot Guards are still doing exactly this outside Buckingham Palace every other morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAt 48 × 162mm with a red ribbon marker, it lies flat in any book.
