EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Sir Charles Henry Alexander Paget, 6th Marquess of Anglesey (1885-1947) and his radiant bride, Lady Victoria Manners, make their grand return to their stately home, Beaudesert Hall, following their honeymoon on the eastern edge of Cannock Chase in Staffordshire. The year was 1912, and the aristocratic couple was greeted with great fanfare upon their arrival in Lichfield. The Mayor of Lichfield, an esteemed figure in the community, welcomed the newlyweds with a heartfelt speech, expressing his sincere congratulations and well-wishes for their future together. The Mayoress, with a gracious gesture, presented Lady Victoria with a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers to honor the occasion. The scene unfolds as gamekeepers and gardeners draw the Marquess and Marchioness's carriage through the picturesque grounds of Beaudesert Hall. The privileged couple, dressed in their finest attire, are surrounded by their loyal servants, who push from behind to ensure their safe and comfortable journey home. This historical photograph captures the essence of an era long past, when aristocratic privilege and class were the order of the day. The Marquess and Marchioness of Anglesey, both scions of noble lineages - Sir Charles being the 6th Marquess of Anglesey and a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, and Lady Victoria, a cherished daughter of the 8th Duke of Rutland - embodied the grace, elegance, and refinement of the English aristocracy. As they make their way to Beaudesert Hall, the Marquess and Marchioness are bathed in the warm glow of their newfound love and the admiration of their community. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, when the aristocracy reigned supreme and the simple pleasures of life were cherished above all else.
