EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1936, Margaret, Duchess of Argyll, formerly known as Margaret Whigham, exudes elegance and poise as she sits for a portrait session for the Bystander magazine's London Faces feature. The image captures the Duchess in the height of 1930s fashion, with her sleek bob hairstyle framing her face and a pearl necklace adorning her neck. At the time of this photograph, Margaret had recently taken on a new role as the chairman of the London Society for the Teaching and Training of the Blind, a position that reflected her commitment to philanthropy and social responsibility. The magazine notes this important appointment in the caption, highlighting her dedication to making a difference in the lives of those in need. Margaret, Duchess of Argyll, was a prominent figure in British society during the 1930s. She had previously married the 6th Duke of Argyll in 1931, and the couple would go on to have a tumultuous marriage that would make headlines for decades to come. But in this moment, the Duchess is shown in a more serious and compassionate light, demonstrating her ability to make a positive impact in her community. The pearls around her neck add an air of sophistication and refinement to the image, emphasizing the Duchess's status and wealth. However, it is her expression and posture that truly capture the viewer's attention, conveying a sense of strength, intelligence, and determination. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who defied expectations and made a lasting impact on society.
