EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time at the prestigious Whites Golf Club Tournament held at Prince's Golf Course in Sandwich, England, in 1932. The image features an elegant group of aristocrats engaged in the sport of golf, a popular leisure activity of the British upper class during the 1930s. Lady Nancy Witcher Langhorne Astor (1879-1964), the first female Member of Parliament in the United Kingdom, stands proudly at the forefront of the group. She is dressed in a stylish golfing outfit, complete with a hat and gloves, exuding confidence and grace. To her left, Lord Tennyson (1866-1946), the 3rd Baron Tennyson of Bradley, adds a touch of sophistication with his formal attire and golfing equipment. Beside Lord Tennyson, Lady Allington (née Lady Edith Alice Mary Sybil Sackville-West; 1891-1981), the Countess of Powis, is seen in a chic golfing ensemble, her focused expression indicating her dedication to the game. To her right, Lord Lothian (1885-1940), the 2nd Earl of Lothian, displays a relaxed demeanor as he prepares to take a swing. The picturesque setting of the golf course, with its lush greens and rolling hills, provides a serene backdrop to this scene of aristocratic leisure. The 1930s, known as the thirties, were a time of elegance and refinement, and this photograph encapsulates the spirit of the era. The aristocrats' timeless fashion, their enjoyment of the game, and the beautiful surroundings all combine to create an enduring image of a bygone era.
