One of twenty-two contact print photographs; which has been cut out, arranged and mounted on card. Depicting Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II) and Princess Margaret, Buckingham Palace, 1945. Standing, full-length, at the foot of an interior staircase. The balusters are carved into decorative floral and leaf-like forms. Both princesses are wearing pale chiffon gowns and double-string pearl necklaces. They look towards a point to one side of the camera and are smiling. Princess Margaret holds her hands together at her waist; while Princess Elizabeth extends one hand to rest on the banister. Behind them, gilded panelling and mouldings are seen on the walls. An ornate grandfather clock and wall mounted candelabra are also seen in the background.
