EDITORS COMMENTS
This front cover of The Sketch magazine, dated May 3, 1951, showcases a stunning portrait of Princess Margaret as she gracefully opened the Festival Gardens at Battersea Park. The event marked the beginning of the Festival of Britain exhibition and development along the South Bank of London. Princess Margaret, dressed elegantly in a floral dress and hat, embodies the essence of royalty and grace during this significant moment in post-war British history. The Festival Gardens, a beautiful and tranquil oasis in the heart of the city, were meticulously designed to provide a much-needed respite for the public and serve as a symbol of hope and renewal following the hardships of World War II. The Festival of Britain exhibition, held from May to September 1951, showcased the best of British culture, design, and innovation. The event attracted millions of visitors and served as a catalyst for further development along the South Bank, leading to the creation of iconic landmarks such as the Royal Festival Hall and the National Film Theatre. This evocative image, captured by the skilled photographers of Illustrated London News Ltd, offers a glimpse into the past and transports us back to the 1950s, a time of duty, hope, and transformation. The Princess's regal presence on the cover of The Sketch magazine encapsulates the spirit of the era and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of royalty and the power of community events to bring people together.
