EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Queen Mary (1867-1953), the consort of King George V, is captured in a tender moment with her daughter, Princess Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood (1897-1965). The image, taken circa 1912, showcases the strong bond between mother and daughter during the early years of the 1910s. Queen Mary, dressed in a formal black gown, sits elegantly on a chair, her regal bearing evident in her posture and expression. Her dark hair is styled in an intricate bun, adorned with pearls and diamonds. Her daughter, Princess Mary, dressed in a white blouse and a floral print skirt, sits on her mother's lap, her hands resting on her mother's shoulders. The young princess's eyes are fixed on her mother, her expression one of love and admiration. The photograph offers a glimpse into the private world of the British royal family during a time of change and transition. Queen Mary, who had been the Princess of Teck before her marriage to George V in 1893, had assumed the role of queen consort upon her husband's accession to the throne in 1910. Princess Mary, the eldest child of the royal couple, was born in 1897 and would go on to marry the future 6th Earl of Harewood in 1922. The image is a poignant reminder of the enduring love between a mother and her daughter, as well as the importance of family in the face of public duty and royal responsibilities. The photograph is a beautiful testament to the personal moments that often lie beneath the grandeur and formality of royal life.
