EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Alfieri, we are transported back to the vibrant political atmosphere of 1920s East Herts election. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly Mr and Mrs Pemberton Billing, a power couple who exude confidence and style. Standing beside their campaign car adorned with eye-catching banners, they proudly display their mascot - a tiny monkey. The presence of this mischievous creature adds an element of intrigue to the scene, symbolizing both the playful nature of politics and perhaps hinting at the cunning strategies employed during campaigns. Dressed impeccably in fashionable attire befitting the era, Mr and Mrs Pemberton Billing wear hats that further accentuate their status as influential personalities within European politics. As a Member of Parliament (MP), Mr Pemberton Billing's dedication to his constituents shines through his determined expression. His wife stands by his side, radiating elegance while clutching onto her muff for warmth in what appears to be a chilly day. This monochrome print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how political campaigning has evolved over the years. It invites us to reflect on past elections while appreciating the enduring allure of fashion and style throughout history. Alfieri's skillful composition allows us to delve into this intriguing snapshot from Europeana photography archives, offering glimpses into an era where politicians embraced unique mascots alongside traditional campaign methods.
