Countess Gerald Harewood Lascelles 1927
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, Princess Mary, the only daughter of King George V, is captured in a tender moment with her two young sons, Prince George and Prince Gerald Lascelles. The image, taken in 1927, showcases the warmth and love between the royal mother and her children. Princess Mary, who was also known as the Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood, is dressed elegantly in a long-sleeved dress and pearl necklace, while her sons, both dressed in formal attire, gaze up at their mother with adoration. Princess Mary's life was filled with duty and responsibility. As the eldest child of the monarch, she was expected to uphold the royal traditions and represent the British monarchy both at home and abroad. However, in her personal life, she cherished her role as a mother above all else. The photograph was taken during a time of happiness and stability for the royal family. King George V had ascended to the throne in 1910, and his reign was marked by a sense of normalcy and order after the tumultuous years of the previous century. The image of Princess Mary with her sons serves as a reminder of the human side of the royal family, and the love and connection that exists between parents and children, regardless of their station in life. Princess Mary's sons, George and Gerald, grew up to carry on the legacy of their royal heritage. George, who later became the 7th Earl of Harewood, served in the military during World War II and became a prominent figure in British society. Gerald, who tragically died in a plane crash in 1942, left behind a legacy as a talented artist and a devoted husband and father. This photograph is a precious reminder of the enduring bond between a mother and her children, and the timeless love that transcends the boundaries of royalty and history.
