EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph captures the tender moment between actress Angela Baddeley (1904-1976) and her young daughter June, taken in the mid-1920s. Angela, dressed elegantly in a high-necked blouse and long skirt, gazes lovingly into the eyes of her precious little girl. The image exudes a sense of warmth and intimacy, offering a glimpse into the personal life of this accomplished thespian. Angela Baddeley was a renowned actress of the stage and screen, best known for her roles in Shakespearean plays and her appearance in the 1931 film adaptation of "The Speckled Band," a Sherlock Holmes mystery. Her theatrical career began in the early 1920s, and she quickly gained recognition for her versatility and depth as an actress. In this photograph, taken during her marriage to Stephen Thomas, Angela's maternal instincts are on full display as she cradles her daughter in her arms. The portrait, taken by renowned photographer Madame Yevonde, is a testament to the beauty and grace of both mother and child. The image is reminiscent of the 1920s, an era of artistic innovation and cultural transformation, and serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring bond between a mother and her child." Angela Baddeley's acting career spanned several decades, and she continued to captivate audiences with her performances on stage and screen. Her role in "The Speckled Band" is considered a classic in the Sherlock Holmes canon, and her work in Shakespearean plays solidified her place in the annals of British theatre history. This photograph, taken during a quiet moment in her personal life, offers a rare glimpse into the life of this remarkable woman and the love she shared with her daughter.
