1897 Bouverie Bridal Depicted Helena Lefevre Mildmay Shaw
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite photograph captures the radiant beauty of Helena Shaw-Lefevre (nee Helena St John Mildmay) on her wedding day in 1897. Helena, the daughter of the 7th Earl and Countess of Limerick, was married to Sir Henry Bouverie St John Mildmay, a prominent figure in British politics and the eldest son of the 1st Baronet of Aldwych. The image, taken in the late Victorian era, showcases Helena's elegant bridal attire, adorned with intricate lace and beading, reflecting the opulence and sophistication of the time. Her long veil, held in place by a delicate headpiece, adds to the ethereal and romantic atmosphere of the scene. Sir Henry and Helena's wedding took place at the picturesque St. George's Hanover Square in London, surrounded by their family and friends. The couple's union marked the beginning of a life filled with grandeur, power, and influence. Helena's lineage can be traced back to the ancient Norman family of St. John, making her a descendant of the famous Crusader, Sir Oliver de St. John. Her marriage to Sir Henry further solidified the connection between the two prominent families. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the British aristocracy during the late 19th century. The image invites us to take a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty, elegance, and grandeur of a bygone era.
