EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, taken in 1931, the recently widowed Mrs. Glen Kidston, formerly Nancy Soames, is seen cradling her young son Archie in a tender embrace. Mrs. Kidston's husband, Bentley Boy racing driver and aviator, Woolf Barnato, 5th Baronet, had tragically lost his life in an air crash just a short while prior. The image captures the raw emotion and resilience of a grieving mother, as she seeks solace in the warmth of her child's presence. The black and white portrait, taken by renowned society photographer, Madame Yevonde, portrays a sense of vulnerability and strength, as Mrs. Kidston faces the challenges of widowhood with unwavering determination. Archie, the son in the photograph, would go on to become the father of renowned fashion and homeware entrepreneur, Cath Kidston. This poignant moment in history serves as a reminder of the enduring bond between a mother and her child, and the strength that can be found in the face of adversity. Mrs. Glen Kidston's story is one of loss, but also of love and resilience. Her unwavering spirit in the face of tragedy is a testament to the human capacity for healing and the power of family to provide comfort and support in times of need. This evocative portrait, taken by Madame Yevonde, offers a glimpse into the personal life of a remarkable woman, whose legacy continues to inspire and captivate generations.
