EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Wallis Simpson, later the Duchess of Windsor, is seen enjoying a moment of respite amidst the chaos of the abdication crisis with her dear friends, Herman and Katherine Rogers, at their villa, Villa Lou Viei, in Cannes, France, in 1936. Wallis Simpson's friendship with the Rogers was a source of comfort and support during the tumultuous period when she was at the center of a royal scandal. The image captures a sense of camaraderie and ease, with Wallis Simpson smiling warmly at the camera, while Herman Rogers places a protective hand on her shoulder. Katherine Rogers, dressed in a stylish floral dress, looks on with a knowing smile. To Wallis Simpson's left stands Lord Brownlow, Peregrine Francis Adalbert Cust, the 6th Baron Brownlow, who served as Lord-in-Waiting to King Edward VIII. Lord Brownlow's presence in the photograph adds an intriguing layer to the scene, as he was a prominent courtier and would have been privy to the inner workings of the royal court. Despite the political turmoil, the photograph offers a glimpse into the personal lives of those involved and the enduring bonds of friendship that sustained Wallis Simpson during one of the most challenging periods of her life. The villa, Villa Lou Viei, served as a refuge for Wallis Simpson during the abdication crisis, providing her with a much-needed escape from the public eye. The Rogers were known for their hospitality and graciousness, and their villa became a gathering place for prominent figures of the time, including the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the human connections that existed amidst the larger historical events, and the importance of friendship and support during times of crisis.
