EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a close-up of HRH The Princess of Wales, Princess Diana's handbag. Taken on August 1st, 1991, at Portsmouth, the picture immortalizes a momentous ceremony celebrating the safe return of the Royal Hampshire Regiment from the Gulf War. Additionally, this event marked the commemoration of the historic 1759 Battle of Minden.

This small act showcased her unique position and influence within the royal family. Diana radiates elegance in her dazzling white hat and outfit that perfectly complement each other. Her fashion choices always captivated audiences worldwide and set trends effortlessly. Kent Gavin skillfully captured this timeless image that encapsulates both historical significance and contemporary style.
