EXHIBITION Europa w Rodzinie The exhibition will open on Sunday 4th March 2018 at 12.00 noon and will run until 19th March. Ognisko Polskie - The Polish Hearth Club 55 Exhibition Road London SW7 2PN Member Price: Free Non-member Price: Free To celebrate the Centenary of Polish Independence, Ognisko Polskie and the Polish Landowners Association are proud to jointly host an Exhibition entitled “Europa w Rodzinie” to open at Ognisko on Sunday 4th March 2018. The Exhibition pays tribute to a significant sector of Polish Society, the ‘Landed Gentry’ which for centuries constituted the backbone of Poland’s cultural economic and political life. Ognisko Polskie is the natural venue for the exhibition considering its background and patronage. The author of the exhibition is the Polish Institute of National Remembrance, “Instytut Pamieci Narodowej” who kindly agreed to bring it over to London. It was first displayed in the Royal Castle in Warsaw and has subsequently been shown in most of the major cities in Poland. The exhibition traces the achievements and ethos of this social group and its virtual demise in the 20th Century during the period of communist rule. Personalities such as Witold Lutoslawski, Josef Czapski, Witold Gombrowicz, Witold Pilecki are famous figures in the 20th Century, all very different characters and all from Landed Gentry families.

  • Mediacide: the Press's Role in the Abdication Crisis of Edward VIII
    ___________________________________________________________ Mediacide: the Press’s Role in the Abdication Crisis of Edward VIII Joel Grissom ___________________________________________________________ On December 10, 1936, a group of men entered the ornate drawing room of Fort Belvedere, the private get-away of His Majesty, King Edward VIII. The mood of the room was informal as the King sat at his desk. Fifteen documents lay before him ready for his signature. Briefly scanning them, he quickly affixed, Edward, RI, to the documents. He then relinquished his chair to his brother, Albert, Duke of York, who did the same. The process was repeated twice more as Henry, Duke of Gloucester, and George, Duke of Kent, also signed the documents. The King stepped outside and inhaled the fresh morning air.1 To the King it smelled of freedom. After months of battling with his Prime Minister, Stanley Baldwin, and the Prime Minister’s allies in the establishment and the press, Edward was laying down the crown in order to marry the woman he loved, an American divorcee named Wallis Simpson. The next day the newspaper headlines across the world would broadcast the news of the King’s unprecedented decision. With the signing of the Instrument of Abdication, Edward had signed away his throne. The newspapers in both the United States and the United Kingdom that would report the abdication had played a major role in bringing about the fall of the King. While the British media had observed a blackout during most of the crisis, the media in the United States had reported the story of the King and Mrs.

  • Newsletter 57
    THE BHUTAN SOCIETY NEWSLETTER NUMBER 57 PRESIDENT: SIR SIMON BOWES LYON AUTUMN 2015 Summer visit by Society members Annual Dinner A final reminder to those who have not already booked, that this Dinner will be held on Friday 27 November at The Polish Hearth Club, 55 Prince’s Gate, Exhibition Road, London SW7 2PN. Booking forms were enclosed with the last Newsletter. Please complete and return with payment to the Dinner Secretary, Mark Swinbank. Blessed, or cursed, by the hottest July temperature ever recorded in Britain, members of the Society were welcomed by Sir Simon and Lady Bowes Lyon to St Paul’s Walden Bury for a delightfully informal but informative day. The house, in the family of the Society’s President since 1725, is the place where HM the late Queen Mother grew up and was later home to her brother, David (Simon’s father). From its oldest part, the 18th century Adam style north wing, formal tree-lined allées, each leading the eye to a statue or architectural feature, radiate in the classic French goose-foot pattern. Although the show of flowering shrubs from Simon’s trips to the Himalayas were over, it was the perfect time to see a special Bhutanese tree Cornus capitata in full bloom (or, technically, bract). This provided a good backdrop for the group photograph above. After a light lunch next to a gnarled but magnificent old oak, Caroline showed guests round the house, with its original 18th century plasterwork ceilings and some very recognisable royal pieces: a portrait of the Queen Mother (one half of a pair with that of her brother David), and a rocking horse which had been ridden by the young princesses Elizabeth and Margaret, as seen in a photograph from 1932.

  • Heir of the Month: May 2016
    HEIR OF THE MONTH: MAY 2016 Princess Victoria of Kent How to educate a last minute heir: The Duchess of Kent and the Kensington System Jennifer Henderson Crane In 1861 Queen Victoria suffered a devastating loss that brought her to the brink of collapse. “The dreaded calamity has befallen us,” she recorded in her journal at Windsor Castle, “which seems like an awful dream, from which I cannot recover.” For those even remotely familiar with Queen Victoria, the image of the black-draped monarch is immediately evoked, a wife in perpetual mourning for the beloved husband she lost in 1861. However, the quoted line does not refer to the passing of Albert the Prince Consort, but instead to that of his paternal aunt and mother-in-law, Victoire, the Duchess of Kent, who passed away in March of the same year. Henry Bone: The duchess of Kent with her daughter, the future queen Victoria (c. 1824/25) Victoria had an at times fraught relationship with her mother, but Victoire’s death appeared to erase the past difficulties and animosities, leaving her daughter feeling like a bereft child. She opened herself fully to her grief, so much so that her obsessive hold onto mourning protocol provoked much commentary even outside of court circles. In her work, Magnificent Obsession, Helen Rappaport quotes an American diplomat lamenting that, “‘the Queen carries her sorrow at her mother’s death to an absurd extent… There are no balls this season and in lieu 1 HEIR OF THE MONTH: MAY 2016 thereof but one concert, and to this only the Ministers, and their Ladies and Chief Secretaries only are to be invited’.” Just as Victoria held varying emotions for her mother, so too have historians held variant stances on Victoire, as well as on her perceived motives and ambition.

  • We Shall Remember Them…
    We Shall Remember Them… The Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum – PISM (Instytut Polski i Muzeum imienia generała Sikorskiego – IPMS) houses thousands of documents and photographs, as well as museum artifacts, films and audio recordings, which reflect the history of Poland. Materials that relate to the Polish Air Force in Great Britain form part of the collection. This presentation was prepared in May/June 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic when the Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum was closed due to lockdown. The materials shown are those that were available to the authors, remotely. • The Battle of Britain lasted from the 10th July until the 31st October 1940. • This site reflects on the contribution and sacrifice made by Polish airmen during those three months and three weeks as they and pilots from many other nationalities, helped the RAF in their defence of the United Kingdom. The first exhibit that one sees on entering the Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum is this sculpture. It commemorates the contribution of the Polish Air Force during the second world war and incorporates all the Polish squadrons’ emblems and the aircraft types in which they fought.. In the Beginning….. • The Polish Air Force was created in 1918 and almost immediately saw action against the invading Soviet Army during the Polish-Russian war of 1920. • In 1919 eight American volunteers, including Major Cedric Fauntleroy and Captain Merian Cooper, arrived in Poland and joined the 7th Fighter Squadron which was renamed the “Kosciuszko Squadron” after the 18th century Polish and American patriot. When the 1920-21 war ended, the squadron’s name and traditions were maintained and it was the 111th “Kościuszko” Fighter Escadrille that fought in September 1939 over the skies of Poland.

Following the Mayski-Sikorski agreement signed in London on 30th July, 1941, Stalin agreed to the exodus from the Soviet Union of Anders' men – known as the Anders Army, together with a sizeable contingent of Polish civilians via the Persian Corridor into Iran, Iraq and Palestine.
