EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken from the front cover of The Sketch magazine on March 6, 1935, showcases the Hon. Mrs. Bryan Guinness, formerly known as Diana Mitford, gracefully embodying the ancient goddess Venus at the Olympian Party and Ball. Held on March 5, 1935, in aid of the Greater London Fund for the Blind, this glamorous event brought together London's elite to raise funds and awareness for the important cause. Diana Mitford, a member of the prominent Mitford family, was an English socialite, writer, and model who was known for her striking beauty and charisma. In this photograph, she dons an exquisite costume designed to capture the essence of Venus, the Roman goddess of love, beauty, and fertility. The goddess' iconic attributes, including her radiant smile, flowing golden locks, and the apple of discord, are all beautifully portrayed by Mrs. Guinness. The Olympian Party and Ball was an annual event that attracted high-profile attendees, and this particular gathering was no exception. The evening was filled with opulence, elegance, and excitement, all in support of a noble cause. The Greater London Fund for the Blind, an organization dedicated to helping the visually impaired, was a cause close to the hearts of many, including Mrs. Guinness and her husband, Bryan Guinness, 1st Baron Moyne. This photograph, a testament to the power of art, history, and philanthropy, remains an important piece of London's social and cultural history. It serves as a reminder of the transformative power of costume and performance, as well as the enduring impact of charitable events on society.
