Francis Imagine Kids Knollys Private Secretary Viscount
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Lady Knollys, née Lady Constance Cornwallis-West, is seen with her delightful brood of children, a testament to the loving family life she shared with her husband, Francis, the first Viscount Knollys. The image, believed to have been taken around 1905, offers a glimpse into the private world of the Knollys family, who were intimately connected to the British royal family. Francis Knollys, a distinguished figure in his own right, served as the private secretary to the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, from 1892 until 1900. This close relationship with the future monarch brought the Knollys family into the inner circle of the royal court. Lady Knollys, elegantly dressed in a high-necked blouse and voluminous skirt, cradles her youngest child in her arms, while her other children play and frolic around her. The eldest boy, Francis, the future second Viscount Knollys, stands proudly beside his mother, dressed in a smart suit and wearing an air of maturity beyond his years. The other children, all dressed in their Sunday best, join in the joyous scene, their laughter and energy palpable through the photograph. This photograph not only captures the essence of a loving family but also offers a glimpse into the history of the British monarchy during a time of great change. The Knollys family's close connection to the royal family is evident in the warmth and affection they share, making this image a cherished piece of historical documentation.
