EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting black and white portrait captures the elegance and charm of Rosemary Hope-Vere, later known as Mrs Quintin Gilbey, with her beloved Cairn Terrier named Looney. The photograph was taken in 1934 by the renowned British photographer Madame Yevonde, whose portraits of high society figures were celebrated for their artistic flair and innovative use of lighting. At the time of this photograph, Rosemary was married to Quintin Gilbey, a prominent figure in British society. However, she had previously been married to Sir Roderick Drury-Lowe. Her friendship with the famous author Nancy Mitford adds further intrigue to her fascinating social circle. The image showcases the upper-class elegance of the era, with Rosemary's stylish fur coat and Looney's adorable Cairn Terrier attire. The playful expression on Looney's face and the loving gaze of his owner create a heartwarming connection between them. Madame Yevonde's portrait of Mrs Quintin Gilbey and Looney is a testament to the deep bond between a woman and her pet, as well as the timeless allure of the British aristocracy during the 1930s.
