EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to the vibrant 1920s, a time of elegance and adventure. Lady Alexandra Metcalfe, formerly known as Lady Alexandra Curzon CBE, takes center stage in her sleek automobile alongside her loyal companion, Willie the dog. This nostalgic snapshot captures the essence of a bygone era when motoring was not just a means of transportation but an exhilarating experience. Lady Metcalfe exudes confidence as she sits behind the wheel, radiating sophistication with every glance. Her fashionable attire perfectly complements the timeless charm of her car – a symbol of freedom and independence for women during this progressive period. As they embark on their drive together, one can only imagine the wind tousling their hair while laughter fills the air. The bond between Lady Metcalfe and Willie is palpable; it's evident that he is not merely a pet but also an inseparable companion sharing in their joyous escapades. Their playful interaction adds an element of fun to this historic scene frozen in time. This remarkable photograph encapsulates both the spirit of adventure and societal shifts that defined the 1920s. It serves as a reminder that even amidst changing times, some things remain constant – our love for four-legged friends and our desire to explore new horizons.
