EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Jean Russell in an elegant and patriotic fancy dress portrayal of Britannia, the national archetype and personification of Britain, from the 1920s. Dressed in a stunning blue gown adorned with gold trim and intricate designs, Jean exudes an air of regality and pride as she sits with a confident pose. In her right hand, she holds a large shield, emblazoned with the Union Jack, while in her left hand she gracefully wields a trident, symbolizing her power and control over the seas. The image exudes a sense of British patriotism and patriotic spirit that was prevalent during the 1920s, a time of cultural and artistic expression. The intricate details of the costume design, from the intricate gold embroidery to the meticulously crafted trident, showcase the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the era. This photograph is a beautiful representation of the enduring symbol of Britannia and the strong sense of national pride that defined the 1920s.
