EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Elizabeth Asquith, later known as Princess Bibesco, in her role as an indefatigable worker for the welfare of wounded soldiers during World War I. Daughter of British Prime Minister Herbert Asquith and his second wife, Margot, Elizabeth was a prominent figure in English society and an active participant in various charity initiatives. In this image, she is shown alongside the actor Gerald du Maurier during a matinee performance at His Majesty's Theatre in 1915. The matinee was held in aid of the British Red Cross Society, and Queen Alexandra graciously attended the event. Elizabeth's dedication to the cause is evident in her tireless organization and participation in numerous charity matinees throughout the war. The upper classes, including Elizabeth and Gerald, played a crucial role in raising funds and providing entertainment for the troops on the home front. This historical photograph offers a poignant reminder of the vital contributions made by women from all walks of life during the First World War.
