Description

The marriage of Captain the Honourable Geoffrey Barrington and Miss Asako Fujinami was an outstanding event in the season of 1913. It was bizarre it was picturesque it was charming it was socially and politically important it was everything that could appeal to the taste of London society which as the season advances is apt to become jaded by the monotonous process of Hymen in High Life and by the continued demand for costly wedding presents.
