EDITORS COMMENTS
The Duke of York with the Earl of Strathmores shooting party, Scotland, 1921. In this photo print, we catch a glimpse into a momentous gathering at Glamis Castle in Forfarshire. The future King George VI, then known as the Duke of York, stands tall alongside his father-in-law-to-be, the Earl of Strathmore. Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, who would later become Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother), graciously assumes her role as hostess for her father's shooting party. The image exudes an air of aristocracy and refinement as the group poses against the backdrop of the majestic castle. Dressed in traditional Scottish attire including kilts and tartan patterns, they embody both regality and tradition. The men sport hats adorned with feathers while their sporrans hang elegantly from their belts. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also hints at significant historical events to come. It showcases the union between two influential families that would shape British history forever through marriage and monarchy. Preserved within this monochrome masterpiece is a testament to heritage and legacy; it serves as a reminder of our rich past intertwined with royalty and nobility. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Illustrated London News: Coronation Record Number (London, 1937), we are transported back to an era where grandeur met camaraderie amidst Scotland's breathtaking landscapes.
