EDITORS COMMENTS
August 5, 1914: A Turning Point in History - The Tatler Cover The front cover of The Tatler magazine from August 5, 1914, bears witness to a significant moment in history, just a day after the outbreak of the First World War. The magazine, which had already gone to press before this momentous news, featured a portrait of seventeen-year-old Princess Mary, the only daughter of King George V and Queen Mary. This photograph, taken in the Royal Family's private apartments at Buckingham Palace, marked a rare official appearance for the young princess. The image of Princess Mary, later Countess of Harewood, was particularly noteworthy as it was her first appearance in an official photograph with her hair styled up. The princess's elegant and refined appearance, with her dark curls pinned up in an intricate bun, contrasted sharply with the uncertainty and turmoil that was about to engulf Europe. The First World War, which began on August 4, 1914, would change the course of history forever. The conflict would claim millions of lives and leave an indelible mark on the world. The image of Princess Mary on the cover of The Tatler, however, offers a brief respite from the impending chaos, capturing the innocence and beauty of a young princess on the cusp of adulthood. This photograph, now available from Mary Evans Picture Library, is a poignant reminder of a time when the world was on the brink of change, and the future was uncertain. It is a testament to the enduring power of images to capture history and transport us back to a bygone era.
