EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Flash Kellett, formerly known as Helen Myrtle Dorothy Atherley, is depicted in this portrait by the skilled hand of Olive Snell. The image captures the elegance and beauty of Mrs. Kellett, who was the wife of Lieutenant Colonel Edward Orlando Kellett. Known for their shared passion for adventure and exploration, the Kelletts were spending the winter of 1934 in the remote and enigmatic land of Afghanistan. Edward Orlando Kellett, an aristocratic Englishman, and his socialite wife, Myrtle, were renowned for their daring exploits in far-off lands. Their love for travel took them to the most remote corners of the world, where they immersed themselves in the rich tapestry of diverse cultures and landscapes. In this portrait, Mrs. Kellett's refined features and poised demeanor are on full display. Her expressive eyes, adorned with delicate eyeliner and mascara, convey a sense of curiosity and excitement, reflecting her adventurous spirit. Her stylish hat, adorned with a vibrant feather, adds a touch of sophistication and glamour to her outfit, which is perfect for the harsh Afghan winter. The portrait, drawn in the 1930s, captures the essence of an era when travel was a daring and romantic pursuit, and the spirit of adventure was alive and well among the social elite. Mrs. Flash Kellett's image serves as a testament to the enduring allure of exploration and the beauty of the world's hidden gems, which continue to captivate and inspire us to this day.
