EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to January 1968 when the renowned writer and poet, Mr Cecil Day-Lewis, was named as the Poet Laureate. The image captures a tender moment at his home where he is joined by his loving wife, actress Jill Balcon, and their two children - Tamsin, aged 14, and Daniel, aged 10. The portrait exudes warmth and familial bliss as Mr Cecil Day-Lewis stands tall with an air of accomplishment while being surrounded by his adoring family. His gentle smile reflects not only pride in his prestigious appointment but also the joy he finds in sharing this milestone with those closest to him. Jill Balcon radiates elegance beside her husband; her poise mirroring that of a true artist's muse. Their daughter Tamsin appears mature beyond her years - perhaps inheriting some of her father's wisdom through osmosis - while young Daniel embodies innocence and curiosity. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the private life of a literary genius whose words have touched countless hearts. It reminds us that even amidst great success and recognition, there is nothing more precious than the love shared within our own homes. As we admire this intimate portrayal captured during the vibrant era of the 1960s entertainment industry, we are reminded that behind every brilliant mind lies a supportive family who nurtures creativity and celebrates achievements together.
