Lallie Charles' (1869-1919) photographs are distinguished by their femininity and pink colour, the latter achieved through toning the gelatin silver print. This portrait depicts Lady Helen Gordon-Lennox, later Duchess of Northumberland (1886-1965) seated on an upholstered bench holding a rose stem with both hands.
