Features -
This issue contains some of Lee Miller's most iconic images. The photograph of Lee during the war wearing a metal helmet was recreated in the film Lee which starred Kate Winslet as Miller. Also within this issue are some of the most haunting images from the movie; the army hospital in Europe with soldiers being operated on were some of the first photos taken by Miller, the first woman photographer on assignment in Normandy. The portfolio is titled Unarmed Warriors and the feature runs 5 pages.
Later in the magazine there are images in Scotland taken by Lee; Scottish Hospitality - CONVALESCENT homes for Polish soldiers etc with portraits of DUCHESS OF BUCCLEUCH, LADY ABERCROMY, LADY ROSEBERY, LADY RUTH BALFOUR and staff manning the makeshift hospitals.
