EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait graced the front cover of The Tatler on 27th October 1909, introducing Her Grace The Duchess of Sutherland, one of the most beautiful and esteemed members of the English aristocracy. Born on 3 November 1891 as Lady Eileen Gwladys Butler, she was the daughter of the 7th Earl of Lanesborough. In 1912, she married George Sutherland-Leveson-Gower, Marquess of Stafford, who later succeeded his father as the 5th Duke of Sutherland. Upon his ascension, Eileen became the Duchess of Sutherland, one of the greatest landowners in England. During World War I, the Duchess dedicated herself to serving as a Red Cross nurse. Her humanitarian efforts and unwavering commitment to her country further solidified her reputation as a noble and compassionate figure. From 1916 to 1921, she held the esteemed position of Mistress of the Robes to Queen Mary. The Duchess of Sutherland's timeless beauty is evident in this exquisite Edwardian portrait, capturing her grace and elegance. Tragically, she passed away on 27th October 1943, at the young age of 51. This portrait serves as a testament to her enduring legacy as a remarkable aristocrat and an inspiration to generations to come.
