EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures Countess Hoey Stoker and her young son, a charming mother-and-son duo of the Roaring Twenties. The Countess, whose given name was Mary Oei Tiong Han, was the daughter of the prominent Chinese businessman, Count Oei Tiong Han, and had married an officer in the British Army. The image was published in the prestigious society magazine, The Tatler, in 1920. The Countess is elegantly dressed in a high-necked blouse and a long, flowing skirt, accessorized with a string of pearls and a delicate hat adorned with a feather. Her son, dressed in a crisp sailor suit, gazes up at his mother with an expression of admiration and affection. The caption accompanying the photograph reveals an intriguing detail about the Countess's interests: she had a fondness for aviation and was among the first ladies to indulge in civilian flying when it was permitted at Cricklewood the previous year. This pioneering spirit, combined with her Chinese heritage and British upbringing, made her a fascinating figure in the society of the time. The photograph, with its timeless elegance and intriguing backstory, offers a glimpse into the rich history of cross-cultural connections and societal norms during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the complex and dynamic nature of society in this era, where tradition and innovation coexisted in intriguing ways.
