EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 1950s in England, where Princess Margaret is captured in a moment of leisurely indulgence. The image showcases the princess's undeniable grace as she watches intently from behind a wooden fence at the prestigious Badminton Horse trials on April 20th, 1959. Dressed impeccably in an elegant head scarf and exuding an air of regal sophistication, Princess Margaret effortlessly commands attention. Her eyes are fixed upon the action before her, undoubtedly captivated by the powerful horses gracefully navigating their way through challenging obstacles. However, it is impossible to overlook one controversial aspect of this photograph - a cigarette delicately held between her fingers. In an era when smoking was widely accepted and even considered glamorous, this detail serves as a reminder of how times have changed. George Greenwell's skillful composition transports us into that momentous day when royalty mingled with commoners amidst cheers and applause. This snapshot not only captures Princess Margaret's love for equestrian sports but also offers us a glimpse into British culture during that time period. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Memory Lane Prints, we cannot help but be reminded of the timeless allure surrounding royalty and their ability to enchant us all with their presence.
