EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of respite at the Y M C A canteen in Hyde Park. The image showcases three elegant ladies, Mrs Stapleton Cotton, Lady Alastir Innes Ker, and Lady Juliet Trevor, seated together with grace and poise. Taken on 4 October 1919 during a time of industrial action and unrest in Europe, this monochrome photograph transports us back to the early 20th century. The women exude sophistication as they engage in conversation over cups of tea served from an exquisite urn. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of the era - long dresses adorned with intricate details that epitomize elegance. Alfieri's skilled photography captures not only their physical beauty but also hints at their societal status. These women represent a segment of society that frequented such establishments during this period - places where individuals could gather for social interaction amidst turbulent times. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the resilience and strength displayed by people throughout history. This image serves as a testament to how even amidst adversity, moments like these were cherished - opportunities for connection and camaraderie that brought solace to those living through challenging times
