EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait of Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, later known as Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, was created by renowned British artist John St. Helier Lander for The Illustrated London News Royal Wedding Number in 1923. The image captures the young and radiant bride-to-be on the eve of her marriage to Prince Albert, Duke of York, who would later become King George VI. Dressed in an elegant cape and wrap, adorned with a fur collar, Lady Elizabeth exudes an air of grace and sophistication. Her expressive eyes and gentle smile convey a sense of warmth and charm that captivated the nation. The portrait was a fitting tribute to the beloved future Queen Consort, who would go on to become a symbol of strength and resilience during her long and devoted reign. Lander's skillful depiction of Lady Elizabeth's regal beauty and poise was widely admired at the time and has since become an iconic representation of the young royal. The portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the historic moment when a humble Scottish aristocrat became the Queen Mother of the United Kingdom, a role she would fulfill with grace and dignity for over six decades.
