EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative portrait, Winifred Freda Dudley Ward, later known as the Marchioness of Casa Maury, captivates the viewer with her radiant beauty and enigmatic allure. Born in 1894 as Winifred Freda Birkin, she would later become the mistress of the Duke of Windsor, then the Prince of Wales, during the early 1920s. Their passionate affair was widely acknowledged as the Duke's first great love, a relationship that would shape his life and ultimately lead to his abdication from the throne in 1936. Before her liaison with the future king, Freda Dudley Ward was married to Lieutenant Commander William Dudley Ward, an R.N.R. officer and Member of Parliament for Southampton. This photograph, taken in 1918, captures Freda at the height of her youth and allure, her captivating gaze and elegant posture exuding an air of sophistication and mystery. Her striking features, with her dark eyes, high cheekbones, and delicate features, were the talk of London society, making her a popular subject for the gossip columns of the day. Despite her scandalous affair with the Prince of Wales, Freda's life continued to be filled with intrigue and adventure. She eventually divorced her first husband and married Pedro, Marquess de Casa Maury, a Spanish nobleman, in 1928. Freda's life story is a fascinating chapter in the history of the British monarchy and the Roaring Twenties, a time of glamour, scandal, and social change. This portrait offers a glimpse into the captivating life of a woman who left an indelible mark on the history of the 20th century.
