EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a precious moment in royal history: the birth of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Taken in 1923, the image showcases the Duke and Duchess of York, later King George VI and Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother), proudly holding their newborn daughter, Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, in their arms. The Duke's expression radiates joy and pride, while the Duchess looks on with a tender gaze. The young Princess, swaddled in blankets and wearing a tiny cap, gazes up at her parents with innocent curiosity. The photograph was taken at York Cottage, Sandringham, Norfolk, England, and was published by Central News, London. Central News was a leading news agency in the United Kingdom during the early 20th century, providing news and photographs to newspapers and magazines around the world. This photograph is a testament to the historical significance of this moment, as Princess Elizabeth would go on to become the longest-reigning monarch in British history. The image is a poignant reminder of the personal side of royalty, showcasing the tender bond between parents and their newborn child. It is a beautiful and timeless portrait that has been preserved for future generations to appreciate the rich history of the British monarchy.
