Sitter associated with 31 portraits
Socialite and actress (and Great Aunt of Prime Minister David Cameron), Lady Diana first became known as a member of 'The Coterie' set in London before the first World War. Following her marriage in 1919 to Alfred Duff Cooper (later Viscount Norwich), who was to serve as a minister in Churchill's War Cabinet, Lady Diana's reputation as a society hostess was confirmed. Her reputation as a beauty was cemented with Hoppé's decision to include her in the 1922, Book of Fair Women. As an actress, her most famous role was as the Madonna in Max Reinhardt's The Miracle, a role she played on Broadway in 1923 and was to play for three years on tour around Europe and in Britain.
