EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph, dated 1939, features Deborah Mitford (1920-2014), later known as the Duchess of Devonshire, in her youthful elegance and charm. At just 19 years old, Deborah is pictured with her beloved greyhound, Studley, in the lush gardens of Asthall Manor, the family home of the Mitford sisters. The youngest of the six Mitford sisters, Deborah was known for her striking beauty and vivacious personality. Her sisters, including the notorious Unity Mitford, who was a close friend of Adolf Hitler, and Diana Mitford, who married the British Union of Fascists leader Oswald Mosley, often overshadowed Deborah in the public eye. However, Deborah's quiet and refined demeanor set her apart from her more scandalous sisters. This portrait, taken a year after Deborah's coming-out ball, captures her in a moment of tranquility and happiness. Deborah's elegant gown, her radiant smile, and the gentle gaze of her dog, Studley, add to the timeless allure of this image. The photograph is a testament to Deborah's grace and poise, and serves as a reminder of the fascinating history of the Mitford sisters, who continue to intrigue and captivate audiences to this day." The Mitford sisters, a group of six sisters born into British aristocracy in the early 20th century, were known for their beauty, intelligence, and controversial political and personal beliefs. This photograph offers a glimpse into the life of Deborah Mitford, the youngest and often overlooked sister, who went on to become the Duchess of Devonshire and played a significant role in British society. The image of Deborah and her dog, Studley, in the beautiful gardens of Asthall Manor, is a poignant reminder of a bygone era and the intriguing history of one of the most famous families in British history.
