EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Roosevelt at the Palace," October 1942: A Historic Encounter between the First Lady and the British Royal Family This evocative photograph captures a rare moment in history as First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt meets with King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, along with their daughters Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose, in the Bow Room at Buckingham Palace in October 1942. Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the 1940s and the ongoing Second World War, this meeting marked a significant moment of diplomacy and unity between the United States and Great Britain. Eleanor Roosevelt, an influential figure in her own right, was a strong advocate for international cooperation and played a crucial role in promoting the Allied cause. The image showcases the regal elegance of the British monarchy, with King George VI and Queen Elizabeth exuding an air of grace and composure. Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret, respectively, are depicted as charming and poised young girls, captivated by the charismatic First Lady. The photograph, taken during a time when the world was on the brink of change, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring bond between the United States and Great Britain and the pivotal role that diplomacy and unity played in shaping the course of history during the 20th century. This photograph is from the book "Princess Elizabeth: The Illustrated Story of Twenty-one Years in the Life of the Heir Presumptive" by Dermot Morrah, published by Odhams Press Limited in London in 1947. The creator of the photograph remains unknown.
