EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Joachim von Ribbentrop, German Ambassador to the United Kingdom, is seen bidding farewell to the Marquess and Marchioness of Londonderry at Croydon Airport in 1936. The image captures a moment of diplomatic camaraderie before the Ribbentrops embarked on a Whitsun weekend visit to the Londonderry family estate in Belfast. The year was 1936, and the political climate in Europe was growing increasingly tense. Yet, in this snapshot of a bygone era, the formalities of diplomacy and the graciousness of British hospitality prevailed. The Marquess of Londonderry, Charles Vane-Tempest-Stewart, wears a formal suit and hat, while his wife, Violet, the Marchioness of Londonderry, is elegantly dressed in a long, flowing coat and hat. Ribbentrop, wearing a dark suit and a bowler hat, stands beside them, his expression serious yet cordial. The backdrop of Croydon Airport, with its Art Deco architecture and bustling activity, adds a sense of modernity to the scene. The photograph is a reminder of a time when diplomacy was conducted through personal relationships and social engagements, and when the world was on the brink of momentous change. The Ribbentrops' visit to the Londonderry estate in Belfast would prove to be one of the last peaceful moments in Anglo-German relations before the outbreak of World War II. The image of Ribbentrop and the Marquess of Londonderry at Croydon Airport stands as a poignant reminder of a time when diplomacy and hospitality tried to bridge the gap between two nations on the eve of war.
