EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Savile Crossley and his esteemed guests gather for an after-luncheon group photograph at Somerleyton Hall in Lowestoft, Suffolk, during the 1912 shooting party. The elegant gathering includes Sir Savile and Lady Crossley, Lord and Lady Vivian, Lord and Lady Hastings, Colonel and the Hon. Charles Willoughby and Lady Muriel Willoughby, Captain and Mrs Godfrey-Faussett, R and Mrs Whitbread, Mr Crossley, and Mr Rimington-Wilson. Dressed in fashionable tweed suits and hats, the group exudes the refined air of the British upper class. Sir Savile, a prominent figure with a distinguished moustache, stands proudly in the center, surrounded by his esteemed companions. Lady Crossley, elegantly dressed in a long, flowing gown, gazes demurely at the camera. Lord and Lady Vivian, Lord and Lady Hastings, and Colonel and Lady Muriel Willoughby add an air of regality to the scene, their formal attire and poised demeanor reflecting their noble status. Captain and Mrs Godfrey-Faussett, a dapper couple with a charming Labrador retriever, bring a touch of warmth and playfulness to the group. Mr Crossley and Mr Rimington-Wilson complete the scene, their friendly expressions and relaxed postures adding to the convivial atmosphere of the after-luncheon gathering. The presence of several Labrador retrievers, loyal companions to the hunters, adds to the scene of a quintessential British country shoot. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of the past, and offers a glimpse into the world of the British gentry and their country pursuits during the early 1900s.
