EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from 1933, Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret, the future Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret, are seen attending the annual sale of work by the Disabled Soldiers Embroidery Society, held in the beautiful grounds of Violet, Lady Melchett's House in Lowndes Square, London. The sisters, dressed in elegant outfits of the 1930s, display the grace and poise that would come to define their royal roles in later life. Princess Elizabeth, born in 1926, holds a petit-point handbag, a testament to the intricate craftsmanship of the embroidery society. Her younger sister, Princess Margaret, born in 1930, is seated on a miniature armchair with a petit-point seat, her smile radiant as she admires the handiwork on display. The Disabled Soldiers Embroidery Society was an organization dedicated to providing employment and rehabilitation opportunities for disabled soldiers through the art of embroidery. The annual sale of work was an essential fundraising event for the society, and the attendance of the young princesses was a significant boost to its profile and success. This photograph captures a moment in time when the future Queen and her sister came together to support a worthy cause, their shared sense of duty and compassion evident in their smiles and their engagement with the community. The intricately embroidered gifts they received serve as a reminder of the artistry and skill of the disabled soldiers who created them, and the enduring bond between the two sisters who would go on to shape the course of British history.
