EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the elegance and allure of Princess Andrée Josée Caroline Carron, also known as Begum Aga Khan, in an image taken by renowned society portraitist Olive Snell in 1931. The third wife of Aga Khan III, Princess Andrée was a French-Swiss socialite who married the spiritual leader of the Ismaili Muslims in December 1929. Their union produced one son, Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan. The couple's marriage was celebrated in high society circles, with Snell's portraits of the royal pair frequently gracing the pages of The Tatler. In this stunning image, Princess Andrée exudes an air of sophistication and grace, her piercing gaze fixed on the viewer with an enigmatic smile. The 1930s setting is further emphasized by the intricate beading and embroidery adorning her dress, a fashionable choice for the era. The portrait offers a glimpse into the glamour and opulence of the time, while also highlighting the intriguing personal story of a modern-day princess and her connection to the rich history of the Aga Khan dynasty.
