EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the moment when actor David Niven (1910-1983) exchanged vows with his beloved Primula Rollo (d. 1946) during their wedding ceremony in 1940. The image, taken during the romantic occasion, showcases the happiness and joy that filled the air as the couple sealed their union. David Niven, a renowned British actor, was serving in the British Army during World War II when he met Primula Rollo, an actress and socialite. Their chance encounter led to a whirlwind courtship, and they were married just a few months later. The wedding took place at the Church of St. George the Martyr in Hanover Square, London, with a small, intimate gathering of friends and family. Both David and Primula are seen in their elegant wedding attire, with David wearing his military uniform, adding a touch of tradition and honor to the occasion. The bride, Primula, looks radiant in her white gown and veil, while David's charming smile and confident demeanor shine through in the photograph. This image is a beautiful reminder of the love and happiness that David and Primula shared during their brief but memorable marriage. The 1940s, a time of great change and uncertainty, provided a poignant backdrop to their union, making their story all the more captivating. The photograph is part of the extensive collection held by ILN - Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, and is a testament to the rich history and heritage of the era. It provides a glimpse into the lives of two remarkable individuals and their enduring love story.
