EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on 20 July 1928, we are transported back to the glamorous world of the 1920s. The image captures an unlikely duo at the races - Miss Fanny Ward, a famous sportsman, and Lord Lonsdale, a distinguished gentleman in his sixties. Miss Fanny Ward stands out with her youthful exuberance as she embraces the spirit of the era by embodying a flapper's style. Her short bobbed hair, adorned with an elegant headband, perfectly complements her fashionable attire - a drop-waist dress embellished with fringes that sways playfully as she moves. Beside her stands Lord Lonsdale, displaying timeless elegance in his tailored suit and top hat. Despite their age difference, these two individuals seem to share a genuine connection as they engage in animated conversation while observing the thrilling horse races before them. This monochrome photograph is not just a mere snapshot; it encapsulates an entire epoch between wars when Europe was redefining itself culturally and socially. It serves as a window into an era where societal norms were being challenged and new freedoms were embraced. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk for posterity's sake, this image invites us to reflect upon our own time while appreciating those who came before us. It reminds us that even amidst change and progress throughout history, human connections remain constant - transcending age or social status
