EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite silhouette, captured by the Illustrated London News in 1935, we find a tender moment in the life of Viscountess Harcourt and her two young daughters, Elizabeth Ann and Penelope Mary. The elegant Viscountess, graciously dressed in the fashion of the 1930s, is depicted with her daughters in their family home. The eldest, Hon. Elizabeth Ann, gazes lovingly at her mother, while the youngest, Hon. Penelope Mary, playfully holds onto the family dachsund. The intricate details of the silhouette reveal the delicate folds of the ladies' dresses, the gentle curves of their figures, and the softness of their expressions. The dachsund, a beloved pet, adds a touch of whimsy to the scene. The background features intricate vines and leaves, adding to the overall sense of beauty and tranquility. This silhouette offers a glimpse into the lives of the aristocratic Harcourt family, showcasing the tender bond between a mother and her children. The paper cutting technique, popular during the 19th and early 20th centuries, adds a timeless quality to the image, making it a cherished piece of history. The image is a reminder of the simple joys of family life, a sentiment that resonates across generations. The silhouette, created by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd, is a testament to the artistry and skill of paper cutting during the 1930s. It is a beautiful and intricate work of art that captures the essence of a loving family moment in time.
