Royal Family Souvenir [antikvár]

% . THIS is a pictorial record of the life of Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh from the time of their engagement to the marriage of their daughter. It is also a record of the work of those photographers who have specialised in photo- graphing the Royal family and whose pictures have given so much pleasure to so many people. The colour illustrations were selected from more than six hundred. Generally they are arranged in chronological order, except on pages where there is a special theme such as sport, fashions or foreign tours. THE PHOTOGRAPHS: The photograph of The Princess Elizabeth and her baby son is the superb work of Cecil Beaton. It was taken at Buckingham Palace in November 1948, a few days before the prince was christened. The family group on the terrace at Balmoral is one of the informal studies of the Queen and her family made by Patrick Lichfield in August 1972. The picture on the back cover is by Karsh of Ottawa ; the front cover picture is by Reginald Davis.
