EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from July 1949, three esteemed figures of the British cultural scene are seen enjoying a reception at Liberty's store in central London. From left to right, we have Daniel George, a renowned critic, Olivia Manning, a celebrated novelist and poet, and Olga Edwardes, an accomplished actress and artist, who later became known as Olga Davenport. The occasion for this gathering was an exhibition showcasing hand-block printing on silk, a traditional art form that had gained renewed popularity in post-war Britain. The elegant setting of Liberty's store, with its iconic Tudor-style façade and stunning interior, provided the perfect backdrop for this creative gathering. Daniel George, with his sharp gaze and distinguished air, was a familiar figure on the London literary scene. Olivia Manning, a prolific writer, was known for her witty and insightful novels set in Europe during World War II. Her works, which included the Fortunes of War series, were widely acclaimed for their vivid characterizations and evocative descriptions. Olga Edwardes, or Olga Davenport as she would later be known, was a versatile artist who had made a name for herself in both the worlds of acting and art. Her acting career spanned several decades, and she had recently turned to painting, specializing in abstract expressionist works. The combination of her artistic talents and her magnetic personality made her a popular figure among London's cultural elite. As they mingle and engage in animated conversation, the trio embodies the vibrant and creative spirit of post-war London. Their shared appreciation for the arts and their commitment to artistic expression make this an unforgettable moment in the annals of British cultural history.
