EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1932, Miss Margaret Whigham, later known as Mrs. Charles Sweeny, Duchess of Argyll, is seen seeking solace and tranquility at her parents' home in Ascot. The image finds her in a serene setting, surrounded by nature, as she poses next to a picturesque pond filled with graceful swans. The peaceful scene stands in stark contrast to the relentless social whirlwind that had become a constant part of Miss Whigham's life. A well-known socialite and beauty of her time, Miss Whigham graced the pages of society magazines like The Bystander with her radiant presence. The inset photographs in the print offer a glimpse into her more familiar world, where she is seen enjoying the vibrant nightlife of the era. In one image, she is captured at the Carlton with the Hon. Max Aitken, son of Lord Beaverbrook, while in another, she is pictured with Eddie Tatham, a sometime contributor to The Bystander. The 1930s were a time of glamour, entertainment, and gossip, and Miss Whigham was at the heart of it all. However, as the photograph reveals, even the most captivating socialites crave moments of quiet reflection and respite from the ever-present glare of the camera lens. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the complexities and contradictions that often define the lives of those who inhabit the world of high society.
