EDITORS COMMENTS

The image, taken by the renowned portrait photographer Madame Yevonde, showcases Elizabeth's timeless beauty and poise. Her refined attire, consisting of a classic white gown with a delicate floral headpiece, embodies the elegance and sophistication of the 1930s upper class. Elizabeth Hornung was born and raised in West Grinstead, a picturesque village in Horsham, Sussex.

The Coronation Debutantes were an integral part of British history, representing the continuity and tradition of the monarchy. Elizabeth's inclusion in this prestigious group solidified her place in the annals of history. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, showcasing the beauty, elegance, and grace of a young woman from the aristocracy during the 1930s.
