Number Engaged: A Snapshot of Romance and Communication in the 1930s This photograph, titled "Number Engaged," is an impression by the renowned artist Pat Charles, showcasing the latest engagements in high society during the year 1932. The image interconnects the engaged couples through telephone lines, symbolizing the modern means of communication that brought people closer together during this era. In the top left corner, we find the elegant figure of Miss Margaret Whigham, who was engaged to American golfer Charles Sweeny. Their future union was a highly anticipated event in society circles. Below Miss Whigham, we see Miss Katherine Horlick, engaged to Mr. Murrough O'Brien, and Miss Betty du Pre, who was set to marry Lord Churston. The intricate web of telephone lines in the photograph not only represents the connections between these couples but also symbolizes the growing importance of communication technology in people's lives. The use of telephone lines to depict romantic engagements highlights the role that technology played in facilitating and strengthening relationships during the 1930s. The thirties, a decade marked by both economic hardships and social change, saw the continued evolution of communication methods. This photograph, taken in 1932, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of high society and the romantic engagements that captured the public's imagination during this time. Pat Charles' "Number Engaged" is a historical testament to the power of communication and the enduring allure of love stories. The interconnected couples, brought together by telephone lines, serve as a reminder of the profound impact that technology has had on our personal connections throughout history.
