EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph, captured in the picturesque Dovedale valley of Derbyshire in 1909, showcases two elegant Edwardian ladies, Kate Nash and Edith Battersby, enjoying a leisurely walk amidst nature's beauty. Kate Nash, the daughter of a prosperous industrialist from London, is seen on the left, dressed in the height of Edwardian fashion. Her outfit includes a voluminous skirt, a fitted bodice, and a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a ribbon and flowers, reflecting the refined taste and affluence of her social standing. On the right sits Edith Battersby (nee Ratcliffe), who had married Walter Battersby, the photographer's brother, just a few months prior to this photograph. Edith's outfit is equally charming, with a high-necked blouse, a long, flowing skirt, and a delicate parasol, protecting her from the sun. The serene setting of Lion Rock in Dovedale, with its iconic natural arch, provides a picturesque backdrop to this historical moment. The Edwardian era, known for its opulence and elegance, is beautifully represented in this photograph. The two ladies, with their grace and poise, embody the spirit of the time, making this image a fine example of the fashion and social customs of the early 1900s.
