EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful photo print, we witness the compassionate spirit of Diana, Princess of Wales during her four-day visit to Angola in 1997. The former Portuguese colony had been ravaged by a devastating civil war for two decades, leaving behind a trail of destruction and countless landmines. On a mission with the British Red Cross, Princess Diana aimed to shed light on the horrors caused by these hidden killers. Captured on the second day of her visit, this image showcases an extraordinary moment between Princess Diana and thirteen-year-old amputee Sandra Tigica at the Neves Bendinha Orthopedic Workshop on the outskirts of Luanda. Despite their stark differences in background and circumstances, their connection is palpable as they stand side by side. The princess's genuine warmth radiates through her smile as she engages with Sandra, offering comfort and support to someone who has experienced unimaginable pain and loss. This encounter symbolizes not only Diana's commitment to humanitarian causes but also her ability to connect with people from all walks of life. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst despair and devastation, there is always hope for healing and compassion. It immortalizes Princess Diana's unwavering dedication to making a positive impact in the lives of those affected by conflict across the globe.
