EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the elegance and poise of Mrs Cyril Asquith, nee Anne Pollock (1896-1964), in the year 1918. Anne, the daughter of a prominent Scottish family, was the wife of the fourth son of then-Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith. The Asquith family was a prominent political dynasty in British history, with Herbert Asquith serving as Prime Minister from 1908 to 1916. Anne's marriage to Cyril Asquith, who later became a prominent lawyer and politician in his own right, took place in 1917. This portrait, taken in the aftermath of their wedding, showcases Anne's timeless beauty and refined sophistication. Her delicate features, expressive eyes, and elegant hairstyle are all captured in exquisite detail. The backdrop of the portrait adds to its historical significance, as it depicts Anne in the midst of a pivotal period in British history. The First World War was drawing to a close, and the country was undergoing significant social and political changes. Anne's image serves as a reminder of the grace and resilience of the women of this era, who continued to uphold the traditions of high society amidst the turbulence of the times. This portrait is a testament to the enduring allure of history and the power of a single image to transport us back in time. It offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman and the world she inhabited, providing a valuable insight into the social and political landscape of early 20th century Britain.
