EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a moment of relaxation and elegance as the Duke and Duchess of Leinster, His Grace the 7th Duke and His Grace the Duchess of Leinster, enjoy a holiday at the Mid-Ocean Club in Bermuda during the 1930s. The Duchess, whose maiden name was Kennedy, was the daughter of Mr. Robert Davidson Kennedy. She married the Duke in 1932, making her the Duchess of Leinster, Marquess and Countess of Kildare, and premier Duchess, Marquess, and Earl of Ireland. The Duke, who had a distinguished military career, served in the Duke of Wellington's West Riding Regiment and the Irish Guards before taking on the title and responsibilities of the Duke of Leinster. The Mid-Ocean Club, located on the south shore of Bermuda, was a popular destination for high society during this era. The Duke and Duchess's presence at the club underscores their status as members of the elite class. The photograph, taken in 1936, captures the Duchess in a stylish summer dress and hat, while the Duke dons a smart suit and tie. The Duke's military background is evident in his posture and the Duchess's graceful demeanor adds to the overall elegance of the scene. The ocean in the background adds a sense of tranquility and serenity to the image. Raffaelle, a renowned photographer of the time, captured this historical moment, providing a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy during the 1930s. The photograph is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the era, as well as the enduring allure of Bermuda as a holiday destination for the wealthy and famous.
