Skirl O' The Pipes - Glamis, 1929
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph capturing a young and cheerful Princess Elizabeth II (later Queen Elizabeth II of Britain) playing the bagpipes during her childhood visit to Glamis Castle in Scotland. The image, taken in 1929, showcases the future monarch's connection to her Scottish heritage and her natural affinity for music. The photograph is from "Princess Elizabeth: The Illustrated Story of Twenty-one Years in the Life of the Heir Presumptive," a book by Dermot Morrah published in 1947 by Odhams Press Limited in London. The photograph is a testament to a simpler time, with the young princess dressed in a plaid jumper and skirt, her hair neatly tied up, and her expression filled with joy as she plays the pipes. The setting, with its lush green landscape and the castle in the background, adds to the enchanting atmosphere. The image is particularly significant as it offers a glimpse into the personal life of the future monarch before she ascended to the throne in 1952. The photograph is a valuable piece of historical art, showcasing the young princess's love for music and her Scottish heritage. The bagpipes, a traditional Scottish musical instrument, have long been associated with the country's rich cultural history and its royalty. This photograph is a reminder of the deep connection between the British monarchy and Scotland and the enduring legacy of the past. The photograph is a beautiful example of the 20th century's photography, with its ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and transport us to another era. The image is a must-have for any collection of historical photographs, royal memorabilia, or anyone interested in the history of Britain and its monarchy.
