EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history that is both scandalous and intriguing. The image showcases the beautiful Countess Zichy, formerly known as Miss Charlotte Demarest, who shocked society by eloping with the Hungarian nobleman Count Zichy on the eve of her wedding to George Burton. Taken on 21 August 1922, this monochrome portrait reveals the couple's struggle for survival after their impulsive decision. Short of funds, they find themselves dancing in Atlantic City to make ends meet. Their determination to maintain themselves despite their unconventional circumstances is truly remarkable. The photograph not only offers a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating personalities but also serves as a reminder of the social norms and expectations prevalent during the 1920s. It encapsulates an era where love often defied tradition and individuals were willing to take risks for their happiness. Preserved by Central News, this Europeana photography piece provides us with a rare opportunity to delve into history and witness firsthand how personal choices can shape destinies. It invites us to reflect upon our own notions of love, commitment, and societal conventions. As we gaze at this full-length portrait, we are transported back in time - captivated by the allure of forbidden romance and inspired by the resilience displayed by Countess Zichy and her noble partner. This evocative image reminds us that true love knows no boundaries or limitations – it transcends time itself.
