EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Princess Elizabeth, later to become Queen Elizabeth II, exudes grace and poise during her Royal Tour of South Africa and Rhodesia in March 1947. The image, taken at Maseru in Basutoland (now Lesotho), shows the young princess engaging in a friendly conversation with a Guide Leader, both shielded from the summer sun by their parasols. Dressed in a stylish, elegant outfit befitting a future monarch, Princess Elizabeth dons a floral printed dress, complemented by a pair of white gloves and a matching hat. The 1940s fashion, with its timeless elegance, adds an air of sophistication to the scene. The Royal Tour, which took place just two years before Elizabeth's father, King George VI, passed away, marked a significant moment in British royal history. Princess Elizabeth's visit to various countries in Southern Africa, including South Africa and Rhodesia, was an opportunity for her to connect with the people and establish a strong relationship with the British colonies. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of the tour, showcasing the warmth and approachability of the future queen as she engages with the local community. The Guide Leader, dressed in her uniform, represents the dedicated service and commitment of the Guiding movement, which played an essential role in shaping the lives of young girls in the region. As we look at this image, we are transported back in time, witnessing a historical moment in the making. The scene, filled with the charm of the 1940s and the promise of a new era, is a testament to the enduring legacy of the British monarchy and the connections it has forged with its people and its colonies.
