EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when Princess Margaret opened the Princess Margaret Hospital for Asian and Coloured patients in Salisbury, Rhodesia in 1953. The image shows Miss Isabell Thornicroft presenting a beautiful bouquet to the princess as a gesture of gratitude and respect.
In this poignant scene, we see Miss Thornicroft gracefully curtsying before Princess Margaret, embodying the traditional British etiquette and formality of the time. The hospital itself represents an important milestone in providing healthcare services specifically for Asian and Coloured individuals during a period of segregation and discrimination.
The historical significance of this event is palpable in every detail of the photograph - from Princess Margaret's regal presence to the diverse group of patients waiting to receive care at the newly opened facility. It serves as a reminder of both progress made and challenges still faced in ensuring equal access to healthcare for all members of society.
As we reflect on this moment frozen in time, we are reminded not only of Princess Margaret's role as a member of British royalty but also of the resilience and strength demonstrated by those who fought for equality and justice. This print is not just a visual representation but a powerful testament to our shared history and ongoing journey towards inclusivity and compassion.
