EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegance and grace of Lord and Lady Petre, Catherine Margaret Boscawen (Lady Petre) and Lionel George Carroll, 16th Baron Petre, at Tregye, Perranwell in Cornwall, shortly after their honeymoon in 1913. Lady Petre, formerly Catherine Boscawen, was the daughter of the Honorable Edward Boscawen and Lady Dorothy Petre, making her a member of both the Boscawen and Petre aristocratic families. Her husband, Lord Petre, was the son of the 15th Baron Petre and Julia Mary Cavendish-Taylor. Born on November 3, 1890, Lord Petre served as a Captain in the Coldstream Guards during World War I. He was wounded near Arras in the late spring of 1915 and was repatriated, but unfortunately, he died of his wounds in September of that year, leaving behind two young children, one of whom was born posthumously. Lady Petre later remarried and became Lady Rasch. She is most notably remembered for her significant role in the restoration of the Petre family seat, Ingatestone Hall, in Essex. This portrait beautifully encapsulates the essence of an aristocratic couple from the early 20th century, a time of great change and upheaval, against the backdrop of the First World War.
