EDITORS COMMENTS
This image features Lady Pamela Smith, the younger daughter of the 1st Earl of Birkenhead, dressed as the Spirit of the Dance, or Camargo, at the Masked Eighteenth Century Costume Ball held at the Austrian Legation in 1934. The event was organized to raise funds for the Austrian Winter Distress League and British Charities. At the time, Lady Pamela was unmarried, but she would later wed Hon. William Michael Berry in 1936 and be styled as Baroness Hartwell. The allure of the 1930s aristocracy is on full display in this photograph, with its elegant costumes, refined atmosphere, and the enigmatic smile of Lady Pamela as Camargo. The image, which graced the cover of Sketch magazine, showcases the beauty and sophistication of the era's high society. The intricate details of Lady Pamela's dress, the delicate mask, and the opulent setting transport us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the world of the aristocracy during the 1930s. This portrait is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the power of fashion to evoke memories and emotions.
