EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from 1933, the Duchess of York, later known as the Queen Mother (Elizabeth, 1900-2002), is seen with her two daughters, the future Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022) and Princess Margaret (1930-2002), at the annual sale of work by the Disabled Soldiers Embroidery Society. The event took place in the picturesque grounds of Violet, Lady Melchett's House in Lowndes Square, London. The Duchess of York, who served as the patron of the Disabled Soldiers Embroidery Society, is dressed elegantly in a long, flowing coat and hat, while her daughters, Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret, wear matching outfits and look on with interest at the various embroidered items displayed for sale. The society, founded in 1915, provided employment and rehabilitation opportunities for disabled soldiers through the art of embroidery. The 1930s were a time of great change and uncertainty in the world, with the aftermath of World War I and the looming threat of another global conflict. This photograph captures a moment of respite and hope, as the royal family supports the important work of the Disabled Soldiers Embroidery Society and engages with the community. The image is a testament to the enduring spirit of the British people and their commitment to helping those in need. The intricate embroidery work on display adds a touch of beauty and artistry to the scene, highlighting the skill and dedication of the disabled soldiers who created them. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the power of community, creativity, and the human spirit to bring people together and provide solace in difficult times.
