EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the elegance and grace of the Princess of Furstenberg, formerly known as Countess Francoise. A true sportswoman at heart, she embarked on a journey to England to train in various disciplines, immersing herself in the world of equestrianism. The image showcases her standing proudly in front of a magnificent Georgian House nestled within her newly acquired small estate in Yorkshire. The Princess's passion for horses shines through as she plans to train several of them on her property. However, there is more than just horsemanship on her agenda; she also reveals an exciting venture involving the production of a sporting film by a French company. With her refined taste and eye for detail, it is no surprise that this ambitious project has piqued her interest. Taken on 24th April 1926 during the interwar period, this photograph encapsulates the essence of European aristocracy between two tumultuous wars. Captured by renowned photographer Dora Kallmus (also known as Madame Dora), this monochrome masterpiece transports us back to the glamorous era of the 1920s. As we gaze upon this timeless image from TopFoto's collection curated by Central News, we are reminded not only of the Princess's remarkable achievements but also how photography can immortalize moments that transcend time itself.
