EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Lady Diana Cooper, later known as Lady Diana Manners, in 1916 during the height of World War I. At the young age of 24, Diana was a prominent social figure and a popular member of an elite group of society intellectuals, known as the Coterie. The Coterie, which included Raymond Asquith, Patrick Shaw-Stewart, and Edward Horner, were all fashionable and influential figures in British high society. Tragically, all three members of the Coterie were killed in the war, leaving Diana as one of the last surviving members of this esteemed group. Diana was the youngest daughter of the Duke of Rutland and was known for her glamour and fashionable style. In this image, she is seen wearing a fur stole, a popular accessory of the time, adding to her elegant and refined appearance. Despite her privileged upbringing, Diana was deeply committed to aiding those in need during the war. She became a tireless advocate for various charities, including the Red Cross, and worked tirelessly to raise funds and awareness for their causes. The photograph captures a poignant moment in history, as the world was forever changed by the devastating impact of the First World War. Lady Diana Cooper's unwavering dedication to charity work and her role as a social figure during this time make this image a significant historical artifact. Malcolm Arbuthnot, a renowned British photographer, captured this portrait of Lady Diana Cooper, adding to the rich visual record of this era.
