EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Emerald, Lady Cunard (1872-1948), is seen gracefully seated next to the Marquess of Milford Haven at the Ice Carnival, an esteemed society function organized by the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland in aid of the Royal Northern Hospital. The event, held in 1932, was a glittering affair that brought together London's elite and high society. Born as Maud Burke in New York, Lady Cunard was the daughter of E.F. Burke. She had made a name for herself as a prominent figure in London society and a leader of the artistic and intellectual smart set. Her flair for the extraordinary was evident in her fashion choices, as seen in this image where she dons a stunning feather boa that adds an air of opulence and allure to her regal attire. The Marquess of Milford Haven, a nobleman of great distinction, cuts an elegant figure in his formal attire, his gaze fixed on Lady Cunard with an expression of admiration. The Ice Carnival, with its icy backdrop and festive atmosphere, provided the perfect setting for this elegant display of society and grandeur. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of London high society in the 1930s, a time of elegance, sophistication, and opulence. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, where grand events brought together the elite and the aristocracy for a night of entertainment and charity. Lady Cunard's presence, with her striking feather boa, adds an element of intrigue and glamour to the scene, making it a truly captivating moment in history.
