EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to a significant moment in history. It captures the Duke of Windsor warmly welcoming his sister, the Princess Royal, and her husband Lord Hayward upon their arrival in Vienna. This marked the first visit by members of the British Royal family since the Duke's abdication. The setting is Enzesfeld Castle, nestled in picturesque Austria, serving as the Duke's retreat from public life. The image exudes an air of elegance and sophistication as these prominent figures gather together against a backdrop of European charm. Notably, the Princess Royal holds a unique distinction as she was the first member of her esteemed family to venture into Vienna since last December's educational expedition to this vibrant city. As they stand side by side with Lord Hayward, it is evident that familial bonds remain strong despite political turmoil. This photograph transports us back to February 8th, 1937 - a time between wars when Europe was on edge. Through its monochrome beauty and timeless appeal, we catch a glimpse into an era defined by change and uncertainty. Preserved through press photography archives like Europeana Photography and Planet News, this image serves as a poignant reminder of historical events unfolding during those transformative years known as "the thirties". Its significance lies not only in capturing royal connections but also in preserving our collective memory for generations to come.
