EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant photograph, Archibald FitzRoy George Hay, the 13th Earl of Kinnoull, and his second wife, Florence Mary Darell, are seen enjoying a shopping expedition in the fashionable European resort of Monte Carlo on the French Riviera in 1912. The aristocratic couple, dressed in the height of early 20th-century fashion, exude an air of refinement and sophistication as they stroll along the bustling streets of the Principality of Monaco. Lord Kinnoull, a Scottish peer and soldier, was known for his prominent role in British society. He had previously served as Lord-Lieutenant of Perthshire and was a member of the prestigious Order of the Thistle. His wife, Lady Kinnoull, was the daughter of the 1st Baron Darell and was also of noble descent. Monte Carlo, with its glamour and glitz, was a popular destination for the European aristocracy, and the Earl and Countess of Kinnoull were no exception. The French Riviera resort offered them an opportunity to escape the dreary English weather and indulge in the pleasures of shopping, gambling, and socializing. The photograph captures the couple in the midst of their shopping expedition, with Lady Kinnoull carrying a fashionable hat and a shopping bag, while Lord Kinnoull looks on with a thoughtful expression. The vibrant colors and lively atmosphere of Monte Carlo are reflected in their stylish attire and the bustling crowd in the background. This photograph is a testament to the opulence and elegance of the European aristocracy during the early 20th century and offers a glimpse into the luxurious lifestyle of the wealthy and influential. The Earl and Countess of Kinnoull's shopping expedition in Monte Carlo is a reminder of a bygone era of glamour, wealth, and refinement.
