EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting wedding ceremony of Mr Charles Le Grice, a distinguished officer in the Royal Devon Yeomanry, and Miss Wilmay Ward at Chelsea Old Church in London. The date was 6th April 1940, amidst the tumultuous times of the 20th century. The image showcases a moment frozen in time, as the couple stands beneath an impressive sword arch formed by their fellow officers. Dressed impeccably in their military attire, they exude elegance and grace. The bride's stunning wedding dress is a testament to the fashion trends of the era, encapsulating all that was glamorous about 1940s style. Surrounded by a guard of honor, this photograph immortalizes not only their love but also symbolizes commitment to duty and service to one's country. As Europe faced uncertainty during World War II, this union serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, love can prevail. The bouquet held delicately by the bride adds a touch of femininity against the backdrop of strength represented by her groom and his comrades. Alfieri's skillful composition enhances every detail captured on film, allowing us to step back into history and witness this significant moment with our own eyes. This remarkable piece from Alfieri's collection evokes nostalgia for an era gone by while reminding us that love knows no boundaries – not even those imposed by war or time itself.
