Summary

[edit]
Description

From Monday's lady with her ass and cart to a lady with frills and flounces in abundance! Princess Mary the Princess of Wales from the Poole collection. Did she sit for Mr. Poole or is this a copy for some reason or other?

From today's contributions it seems plausible that this image of Mary of Teck (later Queen Mary of the United Kingdom) is a copy. It was possibly labelled in the early 1900s (when she was titled as Princess of Wales) from an earlier 1890s original (when titled Duchess of York). [/photos/129555378@N07/ Sharon.corbet] highlights an extract from an 1897 description of her attire during a visit to Ireland - which could well describe this image:  "[..] while at the Dublin horse show she wore plain green muslin trimmed with Irish lace of a yellow toce, and caught up on the bodice with emerald and diamond shamrock brooches"

Photographer: A. H. Poole

Collection: Poole Photographic Studio, Waterford

Date: catalogue range c.1901-1954 (likely 1900s copy of 1890s image)

NLI Ref: POOLEWP 1220
