EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, taken around 1926, we find Queen Mary (1867-1953), previously Princess May of Teck, sharing a warm moment with her granddaughter, Princess Elizabeth (b.1926), who would later become Queen Elizabeth II. The image captures the tender bond between the two royal women, as they gaze at each other with affection and pride. Queen Mary, the consort of King George V, was a beloved figure in British society, known for her grace, style, and charitable work. Her presence and influence extended beyond the royal family, making her a beloved public figure. In this photograph, she is elegantly dressed in a formal gown, her regal bearing evident as she sits beside her granddaughter. Princess Elizabeth, at the tender age of around 21, is already displaying the poise and confidence that would later make her an exceptional monarch. Her smile is radiant, and her eyes sparkle with youthful energy. The future Queen Elizabeth II would go on to reign for over 60 years, becoming one of the longest-reigning monarchs in British history. This photograph is a precious reminder of a time when Queen Mary, as a seasoned monarch, passed on her wisdom and guidance to her granddaughter, who was just beginning her journey as a future queen. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the British monarchy and the strong bonds that connect its members. The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the lives of two remarkable women who left indelible marks on British history. It is a poignant reminder of the past, and a reminder of the rich history that continues to shape our world today.
