EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the elegance and allure of Begum Aga Khan, dressed as Venus for the Eclipse Ball held at the Park Lane Hotel in London on 17 December 1930. The Eclipse Ball was a pageant event in aid of St Johns Hospital, Lewisham, and was attended by sixty performers. The theme for the grand gala was "A Thousand and One Lights," which inspired the imaginative and fancy costumes worn by the attendees. Begum Aga Khan, also known as Princess AndrÚÑáAga Khan, was the third wife of the Aga Khan III, a prominent figure in the Ismaili Muslim community. Her radiant presence shines through in this stunning image, as she embodies the enchanting goddess of love and beauty. The intricately designed costume, adorned with shimmering fabrics and delicate beadwork, perfectly captures the essence of Venus. The 1930s were a time of glamour and opulence, and this photograph is a testament to the extravagance and creativity of the era. The Eclipse Ball was a celebration of the upper class and aristocracy, bringing together the most imaginative and fashionable minds of the time. This image of Begum Aga Khan as Venus is a reminder of the elegance and sophistication of the past, and a reminder of the power of costume to transport us to another world.
