6 July 1891: A Regal Union Dissolved - The Marriage of Princess Marie-Louise of Schleswig-Holstein and Prince Aribert of Anhalt-Dessau This evocative image captures the moment of union between Princess Marie-Louise of Schleswig-Holstein and Prince Aribert of Anhalt-Dessau during their marriage ceremony held at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle on 6 July 1891. The young princess, Marie-Louise, is the daughter of Princess Helena, Princess Christian of Schleswig-Holstein, and the granddaughter of Queen Victoria. Her husband, Prince Aribert, hails from the House of Ascania-Anhalt, specifically the branch of Anhalt-Dessau. The wedding ceremony was a grand affair, reflecting the rich heritage and prestige of both families. The bride, resplendent in an elegant white gown, adorned with lace and pearls, exudes an air of serene beauty as she walks towards her groom, who awaits her at the altar. Prince Aribert, dressed in full regalia, looks intently at his bride-to-be, his expression a blend of anticipation and reverence. The marriage of Princess Marie-Louise and Prince Aribert was a union of two European royal houses, symbolizing the complex web of alliances and political maneuverings that characterized the late 19th century European aristocracy. However, this union was not destined to last. The marriage was later dissolved following reports of Prince Aribert's infidelity and extravagant spending, which put a significant strain on the couple's relationship. Despite the eventual dissolution of their marriage, this image stands as a testament to the grandeur and opulence of royal weddings during the Victorian era. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the lives of European nobility and the intricacies of their social and familial relationships.
