EDITORS COMMENTS
Captain and Mrs William Making proudly pose with their infant daughter Penelope Anne, capturing a cherished moment after her christening at the historic Chapel Royal of St Peter and Vincula in the Tower of London. This photograph, taken on 29 October 1935 by Alfieri, transports us back to the elegance and charm of early 20th century Europe. The image showcases a loving family unit amidst an era known for its eccentricities. The dapper Captain stands tall, exuding confidence in his military uniform while cradling baby Penelope Anne tenderly in his arms. Mrs Making radiates grace and poise as she gazes adoringly at her precious child. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this snapshot from the past, allowing us to appreciate every detail - from the intricate lacework on Mrs Making's dress to the delicate features of little Penelope Anne. It is evident that this portrait was carefully composed by Alfieri, capturing not just faces but also emotions frozen in time. As we delve into history through this photograph, we are reminded of the significance placed upon tradition and family values during those years. The proud parents' expressions speak volumes about their joyous pride as they celebrate their daughter's christening day. This remarkable piece from Alfieri's collection serves as a window into both personal memories and societal norms of that era – an invaluable glimpse into a bygone age.
