EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the elegance and grace of Mrs. Whittington, a lady of refined beauty and sophistication from the Edwardian era. The photograph, taken in July 1907, is part of the Walter Kevis Collection housed at the West Sussex Record Office (Re.No: Kevis 1/W378). Mrs. Whittington's striking appearance is accentuated by her elegant dress, adorned with intricate lace and beading, and her elaborate hairstyle, which is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place with a delicate ribbon. Her piercing gaze and poised demeanor convey a sense of confidence and composure, making this portrait a captivating glimpse into the past. The Edwardian period, which spanned from 1901 to 1910, was a time of great social and cultural change in Britain. This era was marked by the height of the British Empire, the rise of the middle class, and the emergence of new technologies and innovations. The fashion of the time reflected this sense of opulence and extravagance, with women's clothing featuring elaborate designs and intricate details. Mrs. Whittington's portrait is a testament to the beauty and elegance of the Edwardian era, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of West Sussex. The photograph is a precious addition to the Walter Kevis Collection, which documents the lives and stories of the people of West Sussex from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This portrait invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the beauty and complexity of history.
