EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the twentieth century captures a moment of both beauty and controversy. The Countess de Wengen, known for her impeccable fashion sense, is seen wearing a skull cap adorned with delicate feathers. However, what makes this image truly striking is the knowledge that these feathers were obtained through a cruel sacrifice - forty little birds lost their lives to create this exquisite headpiece. Taken on 20 July 1928 by Central News, this monochrome portrait showcases the profile of the Countess as she exudes glamour and style. Her fashion choices reflect the trends of the time, but also raise questions about ethics and animal welfare. The image serves as a reminder of an era when such practices were more common in high society circles. It sparks discussions surrounding cruelty to animals in pursuit of fashion and challenges our perceptions of beauty standards throughout history. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk, this Europeana photography print invites viewers to reflect upon our relationship with nature and how it has evolved over time. It stands as a testament to both human creativity and our capacity for thoughtless exploitation
