EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, Princess Margaret and her fiancé, Anthony Armstrong Jones, radiate joy and excitement as they pose together at the Royal Lodge in Windsor during their engagement in 1960. The announcement of their engagement on February 13, 1960, came as a surprise to the public, as Princess Margaret was the younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II and was expected to remain unmarried. However, the couple's deep connection and shared passion for art and photography quickly won over the hearts of the British people. Anthony Armstrong Jones, later known as Lord Snowdon, was a renowned photographer and designer, and his modern and creative approach to life was a refreshing change from the traditional royal norms. The couple's engagement was a breath of fresh air, and their unconventional love story captured the imagination of the world. In this image, the couple looks deeply in love as they stand in front of a snow-covered landscape, with the Royal Lodge in the background. The Queen Mother, who was also staying at the Lodge, was supportive of the couple's relationship and welcomed Anthony into the royal family. The photograph captures a moment of pure happiness and excitement, as the couple prepared for their upcoming wedding at Westminster Abbey on May 6, 1960. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the romance and passion that can be found even within the confines of royal life. The image is a testament to the enduring power of love and the ability of two people to defy expectations and create their own path in life.
