EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning black and white portrait captures the elegance and grace of Lady Mary Theresa Montagu Douglas Scott as she eagerly anticipates her upcoming wedding to Lord Burghley. Dressed in a beautiful, flowing gown and adorned with a delicate pearl necklace, Lady Mary, the fourth daughter of the 7th Duke of Buccleuch and 9th Duke of Queensberry, exudes the sophistication and poise expected of a debutante of her time. Her engagement to Lord Burghley, an athlete and hurdler, was announced in 1928, and the two were married the following year in a grand ceremony. This photograph, taken by renowned British portrait photographer Madame Yevonde, captures the essence of the 1920s aristocracy and the excitement of a young woman on the cusp of starting her life as a married lady of the upper class. The intricate details of Lady Mary's gown, her expressive eyes, and the elegant setting all contribute to this timeless image, making it a beautiful addition to any collection of historical portraits or 1920s-era memorabilia.
