EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion at the Brussels Exhibition in 1935. In this historic image, we see the Duke and Duchess of York, later known as King George VI and Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother), attending the British Week event during their visit to Belgium. The couple is elegantly dressed, with the Duchess wearing a stylish hat and holding an umbrella, while the Duke looks dashing in his suit. Surrounded by a crowd of people, both locals and visitors from around the world, they stroll through the exhibition grounds with grace and poise. This snapshot offers a glimpse into not only their royal presence but also showcases fashion trends of that era. The Brussels International Exposition was a significant cultural event held in Heysel from April to November 1935. It provided an opportunity for nations to showcase their achievements in various fields such as art, science, industry, and more. The Duke and Duchess' attendance symbolized Britain's participation on an international stage. This particular print is part of a series produced by W. D. & H. O. Wills for cigarette cards featuring Our King And Queen collection. It serves as a historical memento capturing moments that shaped our past while offering us insights into the lives of royalty during that time period.
