EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph, taken around 1935, we find two young princesses of the British monarchy, Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret, enjoying a playful moment with their beloved pet dog. The sisters, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon respectively, are seen sitting on the grass, dressed in summery frocks and sun hats, with their arms around each other and their smiles beaming with joy. The family dog, a fluffy and friendly-looking Corgi, lies at their feet, gazing up at them with adoring eyes. The sisters' connection with their pet is evident in the way they interact with him, reflecting the close bond between the royal family and their animals. The serene setting of the garden, with its lush greenery and vibrant flowers, adds to the idyllic atmosphere of the scene. Princess Elizabeth, who was born on April 21, 1926, would go on to become the longest-reigning monarch in British history, ruling from 1952 until her death in 2022. Her younger sister, Princess Margaret, born on August 21, 1930, was the first and only monarch's sister to marry a commoner. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the childhood of the future queen and her sister, showcasing their playful and loving nature, as well as their deep connection with their cherished pet. It is a heartwarming reminder of the human side of the royal family and the simple joys of childhood.
