EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Princess Mary, the Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood (1897-1965), eloquently embodying the spirit of the British aristocracy during the 1920s. The daughter of King George V, Mary is depicted here attending a meet of the Bramham Moor Hunt, an esteemed hunting tradition in Yorkshire, England. Her husband, Viscount Lascelles, Earl of Harewood (1882-1947), the Master of the hunt, stands proudly by her side. The Princess, dressed in an elegant riding habit and adorned with a stylish hat, exudes confidence and grace as she prepares for the hunt. Her horse, a well-groomed steed, stands calmly, its ears pricked, ready for the command to set off in pursuit of the fox. The hounds, a loyal and integral part of the hunt, are gathered nearby, their keen noses focused on the scent of their quarry. The Bramham Moor Hunt, established in 1805, is one of the oldest and most prestigious hunts in the United Kingdom. The tradition of foxhunting, a time-honored pastime for the British nobility, has been a subject of fascination and controversy throughout history. This photograph, however, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the pursuit of the fox was an integral part of the social fabric of the British aristocracy. The image, taken in 1925, is a testament to the elegance and refinement of the 1920s, a decade marked by prosperity, innovation, and the emergence of modernity. The Princess and her husband, both prominent figures in British society, embody the spirit of the era, making this photograph a captivating and evocative reminder of a bygone age.
