In this photo print, we witness a significant moment in history as the esteemed Lord Mayor of Budapest, Hungary, Jozsef Kovago, arrives at Croydon Airport by air. It is the year 1946, a time when nations were rebuilding after the ravages of World War II. The London County Council has extended an invitation to the Lord Mayor to explore English methods of housing and child welfare. Accompanied by his elegant wife Madame Kovago, they step off the plane onto British soil with grace and dignity. Their presence exudes importance and signifies a diplomatic exchange between two great cities. The image captures their arrival perfectly; it encapsulates both hope for a brighter future and curiosity about different approaches to societal issues.
