EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from 1927, Prince Wiasemsky, Mrs. Astaire, Princess Wiasemsky (daughter of Sir Gordon Selfridge), and Mr. Glorney are captured in a moment of leisurely relaxation at Le Touquet, a popular social retreat for British high society during the Jazz Age. The elegant quartet is seen taking in the fresh sea air and enjoying each other's company, their casual yet refined attire reflecting the sophisticated atmosphere of the era. Prince Wiasemsky, a Russian aristocrat and diplomat, was a frequent visitor to England and a well-known figure in London society. Mrs. Astaire, born Phyllis Rogers Astaire, was an American-born actress and dancer who had already made a name for herself on the London stage. Princess Wiasemsky, whose given name was Cécile, was the daughter of Sir Gordon Selfridge, the renowned retail magnate who founded Selfridges department store in London. Mr. Glorney, whose identity remains somewhat elusive, adds an air of mystery to the group. Le Touquet, a charming coastal resort town in northern France, was a favorite destination for the British elite during the 1920s. Its fashionable beaches, elegant hotels, and vibrant social scene offered a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. In this photograph, we see four individuals enjoying the simple pleasures of the seaside, their easy camaraderie a testament to the enduring allure of Le Touquet as a social renaissance for British high society during the Jazz Age. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties or the Age of Jazz, was a time of cultural and social transformation. The era was marked by a renewed emphasis on individualism, modernity, and hedonism, and was characterized by the emergence of new forms of art, music, and literature. This photograph captures a moment in time when the old world met the new, and the elegance and sophistication of the past blended seamlessly with the excitement and energy of the present.
