Bystander Cover: A Timeless Portrait of Lady Veronica Blackwood with Her Beloved Dog, Young Woodley, by Madame Yevonde (1931) This photograph, taken in 1931, features Lady Veronica Blackwood, a prominent figure in British society, posing with her cherished pet, Young Woodley. The portrait was captured by the renowned photographer Madame Yevonde, whose unique approach to portrait photography made her a favorite among the aristocracy and high society. Lady Veronica Blackwood, born Brenda Woolfe, was the former wife of Sir Antony Hornby and later married Ernest Maddick and Thomas Hussey. She was also the daughter of the 3rd Marquess of Dufferin and Ava. In this photograph, she exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, dressed in a chic, fashionable outfit, with her hair styled in an intricate updo. Her expression is playful and lighthearted, as she gazes down at her loyal companion, Young Woodley, who sits obediently by her side. Madame Yevonde's innovative use of lighting and backdrops added an otherworldly quality to her portraits, making her work a favorite among collectors and art enthusiasts. This photograph, which graced the cover of the prestigious society magazine Bystander, is a testament to her artistic vision and the enduring appeal of a classic portrait. The inclusion of Lady Veronica's pet, Young Woodley, adds a personal touch to the image, highlighting the bond between woman and her beloved companion. The photograph remains a timeless treasure, capturing a moment in history and offering a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy during the early 20th century.
