Happy heavenly birthday to Gertrude Hartley (née Yackjee), Vivien's mother, born on this day in 1888 in Darjeeling, India. She died five years after her daughter, on August 9, 1972 in London.
Here she is posing with Vivien for different family portraits, circa 1915 and in 1922
Vivien Leigh painted and sketched by Augustus John in 1942. Laurence Olivier commissioned the portrait but it remained unfinished
