Cecil Beaton | Zita and Teresa Jungman, 1927

Three photographs by Cecil Beaton, 1927. Middle photo, L-R: Rex Whistler, Cecil Beaton, Georgia Sitwell, William Walton, Stephen Tennant, Zita Jungman, and Teresa ‘Baby’ Jungman.

The most memorable of all is a group portrait taken at Wilsford in the summer of 1927. Here, got up in the style of a Watteau fête champêtre, sit seven of the most dandified exquisites ever placed before a camera. [...] It is an extraordinary portrait — stylized, sophisticated, ultramodern, and yet, in its dandy posturing, hugely frivolous and self-centered, an image that, in the end, conveys nothing except it's own artificiality. By chance, Lytton Strachey arrived at Wilsford while the pictures were being taken. “Strange creatures,” he is supposed to have remarked, “with just a few feathers were brains should be.”

— D. J. Taylor, Bright Young People

Cecil and the Bright Young Things had come of age in the aftermath of the First World War, a stain they took great pains to expunge from their immediate landscape. Did they feel survivors' guilt? [...] They felt perhaps that their contributions to a Brave New World should be an excess of superficiality and inward-looking self-absorption, a world of illusion, with which to dispel an inexplicable past. The heroes were gone, and the survivors could do nothing but fail to measure up. So on they went.

— Robin Muir, Cecil Beaton's Bright Young Things

Teresa (Baby) Jungman

She was the very last of the original ‘Bright Young People’, a clique of restless debutantes and well-born swells with time on their hands, whose high jinks and high spirits diverted themselves – and London - in the1920s.

She was also a heart-breaker and an early ardent but unrequited love of Evelyn Waugh’s. He captured the spirit and eccentricity of Teresa’s scene in his first novel Vile Bodies. Some Wavians have also identified aspects of Julia Flyte.

Teresa and her elder sister Zita were the daughters of Nico Jungman, a Dutch-born artist, and his wife Beatrice Mackey, the member of a respected Birmingham Catholic family.

In 1918 Beatrice married Richard Guinness. So began an energetic, innovative role as a London hostess.

After school Teresa came out, joining her mother’s social world and, with Zita, attracting her own set. Between parties, the sisters and their best friend, Eleanor, daughter of Lord Birkenhead, devised intricate practical jokes. Baby would borrow her mother’s Rolls Royce and mink coat pretending to be a young Russian émigré widow, Madame Anna Vorolsky, with jewels to sell so she could educate her ‘poor leetle boy’. She deceived the novelist Beverley Nichols and the Duke of Marlborough. She attended a garden party as Mme Vorolsky, leading two borzois, and on being introduced to a distinguished soldier and his wife; she told him she would never forget the night they spent together in Paris during the war. The general replied coldly that he had only spent one night in Paris during the war. “Zat”, said Baby, “was zee night.” Madame then disappeared.

The sisters would also take turns pretending to be a reporter, ‘Miss Babington Gooch’, interviewing celebrities at smart hotels and fooling most of them.

The trio also conceived the treasure hunt, an elaborate game which involved tearing about London in search of items that were dangerously hard to obtain, such as the spectacles of the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Between the parties and pranks the sisters would attend Mass and several days a week Teresa joined her friend, Maureen Guinness, in delivering meals to the needy around St Pancras.

Teresa (Baby) Jungman  died on 11 June 2010, aged 102.
