EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Major Edward Dudley Metcalfe, affectionately known as "Fruity Metcalfe," is seen enjoying a leisurely moment on the sandy beach of Deauville, Normandy, France, with two esteemed women from high society. The Major, a British Indian Army officer and close friend and equerry to Edward VIII, is dressed casually in a light-colored suit and straw boater, the perfect attire for a summer holiday. Seated to his right is the Honorable Mrs. Fred Cripps, formerly the Duchess of Westminster. Her elegant figure is clad in a stylish bathing costume, complete with a fashionable sun hat and a pair of sunglasses, shielding her eyes from the sun. Mrs. Cripps, known for her beauty and social connections, was a prominent figure in British high society. To the Major's left sits his wife, Lady Alexandra Metcalfe, formerly Lady Alexandra Curzon, CBE. Daughter of the renowned Viceroy of India, George Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston, Lady Alexandra adds an air of sophistication and grace to the scene. She dons a high-waisted bathing costume and a sun hat, her expression radiating joy and relaxation. The trio seems to be in high spirits, their laughter and camaraderie evident as they engage in an enjoyable conversation. The tranquil setting of the French coast, with its golden sand and clear blue waters, serves as the perfect backdrop for this delightful scene of fun and relaxation. This photograph, taken in 1928, captures a moment of respite and joy in the lives of these three prominent figures, offering a glimpse into the elegant and carefree world of British high society during the summer season.
