In this photograph from January 1968, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion for the literary world. The image showcases Mr Cecil Day-Lewis, a distinguished writer and poet, as he is announced as the Poet Laureate. With an air of accomplishment and pride, Mr Day-Lewis stands tall in his home alongside his beloved wife, actress Jill Balcon. The couple exudes elegance and sophistication as they pose together with their two children - Tamsin, aged 14, and Daniel, aged 10. Their smiles radiate warmth and happiness amidst this significant milestone in their lives. It is evident that family plays an integral role in their journey towards success. This portrait captures not only the essence of a renowned poet but also offers us a glimpse into the intimate moments shared within this creative household.

As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the power of artistry that transcends generations. This print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by Mr Cecil Day-Lewis – one that continues to inspire aspiring writers and poets even today.
