Hunting with the Cheshire Hounds - A Glimpse into Aristocratic Society in the 1920s
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous event - a meet of the esteemed Cheshire Hounds at Saighton Towers, near Chester. The grand residence of Countess Grosvenor, mother to the Duke of Westminster, served as an exquisite backdrop for this gathering. In this image, we see two elegant ladies immersed in conversation while seated comfortably in bath chairs. The Countess herself is present, radiating grace and sophistication alongside Dowager Lady Ebury. Both women are adorned in fashionable attire befitting their aristocratic status; their fur muffs adding a touch of opulence to their ensemble. The year was 1923 when this photograph was taken, capturing the essence of European society during that era. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of these privileged individuals who indulged in leisurely pursuits such as fox hunting. Preserved by Central News for posterity, this monochrome masterpiece not only showcases an elite social event but also serves as a valuable piece of twentieth-century history. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to a time when tradition and elegance were paramount among Europe's upper class
