EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful photograph captures a moment of pure joy and excitement between the Duchess of York, later known as Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother (1900-2002), and her young daughter, Princess Elizabeth (1926-2022), during their visit to the Aldershot Tattoo in 1932. The Aldershot Tattoo was an annual military spectacle held in Aldershot, England, showcasing various military displays, parades, and performances. The event was a favorite among the royal family, and the Duchess and her daughter were known to attend regularly. In this image, the Duchess and Princess Elizabeth are seen seated in the grandstand, their faces beaming with happiness as they watch the entertainment. The highlight of the day for the children was undoubtedly the staged fight between the Red Indians and Pioneers, a thrilling and colorful display that no doubt captured their imaginations. The Duchess, dressed in a stylish hat and coat, looks on with pride and enjoyment, her eyes fixed on the action unfolding before her. Princess Elizabeth, dressed in a cute dress and matching hat, claps her hands in delight, her eyes wide with wonder and excitement. The 1930s was a time of great change and uncertainty in the world, but for the Duchess and her daughter, moments like these provided a welcome distraction and a source of joy. This photograph is a testament to the enduring bond between mother and daughter, as well as the magic of childhood and the simple pleasures of a day out at the Tattoo.
