EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy are seen meeting with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip at a state dinner held at Buckingham Palace in London on May 31, 1961. The Kennedys were on an official visit to the United Kingdom, marking the first time an American president had been invited to a state dinner at the royal residence. The image captures the warmth and cordiality between the two leaders and their spouses, as they engage in conversation and exchange pleasantries. The elegant setting of the palace, with its ornate decor and grandeur, serves as a fitting backdrop for this significant diplomatic occasion. Below the main photograph, a second image shows Jacqueline Kennedy and her sister, Princess Lee Radziwill, at the door of No. 4 Buckingham Place, the Radziwills' London residence. The sisters are dressed in chic outfits, reflecting the style and sophistication of the time. This photograph is a testament to the special relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom during the Kennedy administration, and offers a glimpse into the history of diplomacy and royalty. The image is a valuable historical record of a pivotal moment in the annals of Anglo-American relations.
