EDITORS COMMENTS
A Striking Contrast: Lady Drogheda's Transformation from Aristocratic Aviatrix to Plough Girl during World War One This photograph captures Lady Drogheda, formerly Kathleen Burn, in a picturesque moment as she ploughs a field with the help of a horse-drawn plough. Born Kathleen Moore Pelham Burn, she married the 10th Earl of Drogheda in 1909 but divorced him in 1922 to marry Guillemo Delanda, a polo player. Lady Drogheda was known for her indomitable spirit and her love for sports. She showcased her athleticism on the tennis courts at Wimbledon and even learned to fly. However, during the tumultuous period of World War One, Lady Drogheda put aside her flying overalls and donned this simple yet elegant dress to contribute to the war effort in a different way. Agriculture became a vital sector during the war, and many women, including aristocrats, took up the challenge to help keep the land productive. The Bystander, a renowned British weekly magazine, commented on Lady Drogheda's transformation, praising her for her adaptability and dedication to the cause. This image stands as a testament to the resilience and versatility of women during the First World War, particularly those from the aristocracy who defied societal norms and expectations to make a difference. Date: 1918
