EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from The Tatler, published in 1942, we see the elegant and poised sisters, Myra and Georgina Wernher. The daughters of Lady Zia (née Princess Zia of Greece and Denmark) and Sir Harold Wernher, they are also grand-daughters of Grand Duke Michael of Russia. Myra Wernher, depicted on the top left of the image, would go on to marry Major Sir David Butter in 1946. She became a close friend of the Duke of Edinburgh and was known for her involvement in London society. Her sister, Georgina, is seen on the bottom right of the photograph, with an enchanting smile and a graceful posture. The sisters' impeccable style and refined beauty are on full display in this portrait. Their timeless elegance transcends the decades, offering a glimpse into the glamour and sophistication of the past. The photograph, published in The Tatler during World War II, serves as a reminder of a bygone era, filled with elegance, charm, and resilience. The Wernher sisters' story is a fascinating one, rooted in royalty and steeped in history. Their connection to the Grand Dukes of Russia and their involvement in London society adds an intriguing layer to their narrative. This photograph, with its timeless appeal and captivating subject matter, continues to captivate viewers and offer a glimpse into the past.
