EDITORS COMMENTS
A Royal Family Moment at the Richmond Horse Show: George VI, Queen Elizabeth (The Queen Mother), and Princess Elizabeth (Future Queen Elizabeth II), 1936 This evocative photograph captures a rare moment of relaxation and joy within the regal confines of the Royal Family. Taken at the annual Royal Horse Show in Richmond, Surrey, in 1936, the image features King George VI, his consort Queen Elizabeth (later known as the Queen Mother), and their eldest daughter, Princess Elizabeth (future Queen Elizabeth II). King George VI, who ascended to the throne in 1936 following the abdication of his brother, King Edward VIII, is seen in a casual yet authoritative pose, wearing a military uniform with a relaxed expression. His wife, Queen Elizabeth, sits elegantly beside him, her regal bearing evident even in the informal setting. The young Princess Elizabeth, just 12 years old at the time, is dressed in a pretty floral dress and a matching hat, her eyes fixed on the horse show with an air of excitement and curiosity. The horse show at Richmond was an annual event that brought together the British aristocracy and royalty, providing an opportunity for them to display their equestrian skills and enjoy the festivities. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of the Royal Family, showcasing their shared love for horses and the close bond between them. The image is a poignant reminder of a simpler time, when the monarchy was a constant presence in the lives of the British people and the future Queen Elizabeth II was just a young girl enjoying a day out with her family.
