One of twelve photographs from a contact print; which has been cut out, arranged and mounted on card. Depicting King George VI, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II) and Princess Margaret, Windsor Castle, 1943. King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother are seated upon a gilt and upholstered sofa in the foreground. They turn to face each other, in conversation. Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother rests one hand on the surface of the upholstery between them. The two princesses also look towards their father, who appears to be speaking or telling a story. All three women are smiling and appear amused. Princess Margaret sits close to her mother, perched on the arm of the sofa; while Princess Elizabeth, stands behind them, resting her folded arms on the back of the chair. The room is heavily furnished, with gilded and panelled decorations on the walls. A glowing fire is partly seen at the edge of the image, beneath a large mirror and a mantle decorated with vines; carved statuettes and a candle holder adorn its top. A large oil painting is hung on the wall behind the family. The painting depicts a lady wearing a gown; a small dog scurries at her feet.
