EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of joy and connection between Queen Mary and the people of south London during a visit to allotments in 1918. Amidst the backdrop of the First World War, the Queen and King George V (1865-1936) are seen inspecting the small, thriving plots, where residents had taken up gardening as a means of self-sufficiency and distraction from the hardships of the time. Queen Mary, with her radiant smile, is delighted as she is presented with a tiny piglet, cradled in a wicker basket. The sight of the smiling, happy pig adds a touch of whimsy and lightness to the scene, as the Queen and King engage with the community and express their appreciation for the home-grown produce. Surrounded by the lush greenery of the allotments and the vibrant colors of the cabbages, carrots, and other vegetables, this image offers a poignant reminder of the resilience and resourcefulness of the British people during a time of great adversity. The Queen's warm expression and the contented piglet in her arms serve as a testament to the simple pleasures and joys that can be found even in the most challenging of circumstances.
