EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Timeless Moment of Sisterly Bonding and Playful Whimsy This photograph, titled "Duet - 1940," captures a charming and playful moment in the lives of two young princesses, Princess Elizabeth (future Queen Elizabeth II) and her younger sister, Princess Margaret Rose. The image, created in 1947, shows the sisters seated at a piano in matching floral dresses, their backs facing the camera, as they engage in a musical duet. A corgi, a beloved British breed, lies at their feet, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. The photograph is taken from the book "Princess Elizabeth: The Illustrated Story of Twenty-one Years in the Life of the Heir Presumptive," written by Dermot Morrah and published by Odhams Press Limited in London in 1947. The image offers a glimpse into the private lives of the future monarch and her sister, showcasing their shared love for music and the playful companionship of their pet corgi. The sisters' elegant dresses, reminiscent of the 1940s fashion, add a touch of sophistication to the image, while the casual setting and the presence of the corgi create an endearing and relatable atmosphere. The photograph is a testament to the strong bond between the sisters and their shared moments of joy and playfulness during their childhood. The image is a beautiful reminder of the simple pleasures of family life and the enduring power of music to bring people together. Whether you are a fan of royalty, history, or simply appreciate the beauty of a well-captured moment, "Duet - 1940" is sure to captivate and delight.
