EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret are seen bidding farewell to the departing King and Queen of Denmark at Liverpool Street Station in London on the 11th of May, 1951. The image captures a moment of sisterly affection and royal protocol, as the two young princesses, dressed in elegant 1950s fashion, bid adieu to their Danish counterparts, King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid, who were departing after an official visit to the United Kingdom. Princess Elizabeth, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II, is seen wearing a stylish hat and a chic suit, while Princess Margaret, her younger sister, dons a beautiful floral dress and a matching hat. The sisters' impeccable attire reflects the fashion trends of the era, with their outfits showcasing the elegance and sophistication that were synonymous with the British royal family during the 1950s. The bustling Liverpool Street Station serves as the backdrop to this poignant scene, with the hustle and bustle of the crowd adding to the sense of occasion. The image captures the sisters in a moment of intimacy and connection, as they bid farewell to their Danish counterparts, who were leaving after a successful and productive visit to the UK. This photograph is a testament to the close relationship between the British and Danish royal families, and the enduring bond between the two sisters, Elizabeth and Margaret, who would go on to play significant roles in their respective countries' histories. The image also offers a glimpse into the fashion and style of the 1950s, making it a valuable addition to any collection of royal or historical photographs.
