*Hitler (Adolf, 1889-1945). Half-length portrait in half profile by Heinrich Hoffmann, mid 1930s, vintage gelatin silver print, wet stamp credit to verso 'Photo-Haus Hoffmann , Mnchen 2 N.W. Amalienstr. 25', signed presentation inscription to lower blank margin from Hitler to David Lloyd George on the occasion of their historic meeting, 'Mister Lloyd George, zur freundlichen Erinnerung an seinen Beitrag in meinen Deutschland in umsichtiger Vorahnung, Adolf Hitler, Berchtesgaden den 4 /Sept. 1936', [translation: 'Mister Lloyd George, in kind remembrance of his contribution to my Germany with circumspect presentiment, Adolf Hitler, Berchtesgaden, 4th September 1936'], image size 198 x 150mm, sheet size 27 x 22 cm David Lloyd George's visit to Hitler at his villa, the Berghof, near Berchtesgaden, in September 1936, is invariably represented as an exercise in folly and Lloyd George (1863-1945) painted as a self-deluded victim of Nazi propaganda. His effusions in the press on his return, of a peace-loving Germany, determined never again to go to war with Britain, are an embarrassment to his admirers. Of all Hitler's British visitors, Churchill said 'no one was more completely misled than Mr Lloyd George'. This signed presentation photograph, a memento of that infamous meeting, is undoubtedly one of the most historically poignant and significant presentation photographs of Hitler to ever come up for sale, yoking together Britain's Great War-time premier on the one part with the Fhrer of Nazi Germany on the other. Lloyd George had a one-to-one policy meeting with Hitler on the afternoon of 4 September, in the Fhrer's office at his villa, the Berghof. The following afternoon the entire British party of six joined Hitler in the Great Hall there for a social gathering and tea. It was then that this photograph was presented. Printed below are account extracts of the occasion written by two of those also present, A.J. Sylvester, Lloyd George's private secretary, and Thomas Jones, a close associate of the then prime minister Stanley Baldwin. 'It was probably half-past five when we sat down in a large circle of low and easy chairs for tea and coffee and slices of cold ham and halves of hard-boiled eggs For some time the talk rambled over presentation of ancient buildings At this point a signed photograph of the Fhrer was produced, in a case, and handed by him to L.G. who responded with the hope that Hitler would not object to share a table in L.G.'s house with photographs of Foch and President Wilson. From this point on the talk became more serious and impressive Hitler spoke with a grave and sincere animation. Germany had lost the war [First World War], that had happened to nations before It was realized in Germany that if the war was won by the Allies, it was not due to the soldiers but to one great statesman - Lloyd George Lloyd George, speaking with a tear in his throat, was deeply touched by the personal tribute of the Fhrer and was proud to hear it paid to him by the greatest German of the age 'Thomas Jones, A Diary with Letters, 1931-1950 (1954), pp. 248-52. 'We all sat in easy chairs round a very low tea-table, on which candles were lit. It was a wonderful setting. It was a great moment when Hitler handed to L.G. a beautifully framed and autographed photograph of himself. L.G. immediately rose and shook Hitler very warmly by the hand. L.G. was immensely pleased with this. We had taken a number of photographs of Hitler with us and, after he had signed these, we took our leave. A most remarkable experience.' A.J. Sylvester, Life with Lloyd George, (1975), pp. 149-150. (1)
