EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in history - Princess Mary's visit to Ye Old Cheshire Cheese in London on 4 December 1919. The image, taken by an English photographer of the 20th century, showcases the princess alongside the Lord Mayor, both adorned in regal attire. The setting is a quaint restaurant tavern that exudes charm and character. As Princess Mary graciously engages with the Lord Mayor, their presence commands attention from all those around them. However, what truly adds a touch of whimsy to this scene is the unexpected inclusion of several birds. Perched on various surfaces throughout the room are fowls of different species - parrots and sea birds among them. These wildlife animals seem unfazed by the royal company they find themselves amidst; instead, they add an element of liveliness to an otherwise formal affair. It is worth noting that this vintage postcard could benefit from retouching to remove spotting caused by age. Nonetheless, it remains a remarkable piece from a private collection that offers us a glimpse into history and allows our imagination to wander back to that day in December 1919 when royalty graced Ye Old Cheshire Cheese with their presence.
