A Smile for Baby
EDITORS COMMENTS
: An Unforgettable Moment in Princess Elizabeth's Early Life (1947) This evocative photograph captures a tender and joyful moment in the life of Princess Elizabeth, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom. The image was taken on 27 June 1945, during a visit to the Heritage Craft Schools for Crippled Children at Chailey in Sussex. The future monarch, then aged 19, is seen smiling warmly at a young girl, likely one of the students at the school. Dressed in a simple yet elegant outfit, Princess Elizabeth wears a fitted blouse with a Peter Pan collar and a pleated skirt. Her hair is styled in a neat bob, and she accessorizes her look with a pearl necklace and a pair of white gloves. The young princess's expression is filled with warmth and compassion as she engages with the child, who is wearing a cute dress and a hat adorned with flowers. The photograph is a poignant reminder of Princess Elizabeth's early years and her dedication to serving her community. The visit to the Heritage Craft Schools for Crippled Children was just one of many engagements she undertook during her formative years, demonstrating her commitment to helping those in need and her natural ability to connect with people from all walks of life. The photograph, titled "A Smile for Baby," was published in the book "Princess Elizabeth: The Illustrated Story of Twenty-one Years in the Life of the Heir Presumptive" by Dermot Morrah in 1947. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, adding to the mystery and allure of this timeless image.
