1946 Agatha Christie Foreground Greenway


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in 1946, captures Greenway House in Devon, a beloved home to the renowned author Agatha Christie and her archaeologist husband Max Mallowan. Nestled along the banks of the River Dart, the elegant country house is bathed in the soft, autumnal light of the English countryside. The image offers a rare glimpse into the private lives of the famous couple, as they are seen in the foreground, engaged in conversation, with Agatha's signature bobbed hair and Max's distinctive moustache. Greenway House, a Grade II* listed property, holds a significant place in literary and historical importance. Agatha Christie, the best-selling novelist of all time, penned several of her famous detective novels at the house, including "Ordeal by Innocence" and "A Daughter's a Danger." The house's unique setting and intriguing history served as a constant source of inspiration for her stories. Max Mallowan, an archaeologist, and his wife Agatha Christie shared a deep connection with Greenway House, which they purchased in 1938. The couple spent many happy years there, entertaining guests, hosting archaeological excavations, and enjoying the tranquility of the Devon countryside. This photograph, taken in the post-war era, serves as a poignant reminder of their idyllic life together. This image, a historical treasure from the Mary Evans Picture Library, invites us to step back in time and explore the fascinating lives of Agatha Christie and Max Mallowan at their beloved Greenway House in Devon.
