EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph graces the front cover of The Sketch magazine's issue from 1922, featuring the engagement announcement of Lord Louis Mountbatten and Edwina Ashley. The image captures the couple in Delhi, India, where Lord Mountbatten was serving as the Chief Commissioner at the time. Mountbatten, also known as "Dickie" to his friends, was a British naval officer and statesman, who would later become the last Viceroy of India before its independence. Edwina Ashley, an English socialite and heiress, was known for her beauty and charm. The couple's engagement was a significant event in British society, and their wedding took place in July 1922. This portrait, with its timeless elegance and romantic atmosphere, offers a glimpse into the lives of this famous royal couple during their engagement period. The photograph, taken in India, reflects the exotic and exoticizing imagery of the British Raj, and the couple's connection to the colonial past. The Sketch magazine's cover showcases the grandeur and opulence of the engagement, making it a valuable historical document of the era.
