EDITORS COMMENTS
Lord and Lady Gorell bask in the joyous aftermath of their infant son's christening at Christ Church, Kensington. This photo print, captured by renowned photographer Alfieri on 5th November 1927, transports us back to the elegant world of early 20th-century European society. In this timeless image, Lord Gorell exudes sophistication in his tailored suit while Lady Gorell radiates gracefulness in her exquisite gown adorned with delicate lace. Their stylish attire perfectly reflects the fashion trends of the roaring twenties - an era defined by its opulence and glamour. The proud parents stand side by side, cradling their precious baby boy who symbolizes hope for a bright future. The toddler's cherubic face is filled with innocence as he gazes curiously into the camera lens. A nurturing nurse or nanny stands close by, ensuring his safety and well-being. This photograph not only captures a momentous occasion but also offers a glimpse into the privileged lives led by Lord and Lady Gorell. It serves as a testament to their social status within high society circles during this era. Alfieri's masterful composition and use of monochrome add depth to this already enchanting scene, evoking nostalgia for a time gone by. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved through Europeana Photography archives, we are reminded of the enduring power that family bonds hold across generations.
