The image showcases Leo Abse MP, a prominent campaigner for gay rights and esteemed member of parliament, accompanied by his wife Marjorie and their two children Tobias and Bathsheba. Arriving in grandeur befitting the event's significance, the Abse family gracefully descends from an open horse-drawn carriage. The elegant landau carriage is pulled by majestic horses that add an air of regality to the scene. As they step onto Welsh soil with pride gleaming in their eyes, it becomes evident that this day marks not only the opening of an antiques fair but also a significant milestone for Leo Abse's political career. Leo Abse's dedication to law and justice as a lawyer turned politician has made him a respected figure within Labour circles.
