EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion - the christening of Noel Robert Cunningham Reid, the second son of Captain and Mrs. Cunningham Reid. The ceremony took place at St Marks in North Audley Street on a beautiful afternoon. The image showcases the elegance and sophistication of 1930s fashion, with Mrs. Wilfield Ashley, Countess of Brecknock, and Lady Louis Mountbatten gracing the scene as godmothers. The photograph exudes an air of celebration as family members gather to commemorate this special event. It transports us back to a time between the wars when Europe was undergoing significant changes. Alfieri's skillful lens has immortalized this precious moment in history. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are reminded of the importance placed on tradition and heritage during that era. The attention to detail is evident not only in the exquisite attire worn by those present but also in their expressions filled with joy and pride. Alfieri's work serves as a window into another time - one where families gathered together for such significant milestones, cherishing each other's presence amidst uncertain times. This photograph is more than just an image; it is a testament to love, faith, and unity that transcends generations.
