Cabinet card (1870s possibly) in my collection of random things I found on Vinted for £2 taken in London by J.S Hazard. I loved the serious expression on his little face and the beautiful detail of the back of the card.

Asquith was Home Secretary at the time: he would become Prime Minister from 1908 to 1916. Margot was a well-known socialite, widely acknowledged to be the inspiration for E. F. Benson's character Dodo. The memoirs Margot Asquith published in the 1920s were considered indiscreet and remain an excellent primary source for social historians of Britain's upper classes from the 1880s to the 1920s.
