EDITORS COMMENTS
"This striking photograph captures Princess Elisabetha of Romania, also known as Queen Elizabetha of Greece, in the later years of her life. Born in 1894 as the elder daughter of King Ferdinand and Queen Marie, Elisabetha's royal lineage was deeply rooted in the European monarchy. In 1921, she married King George II of the Hellenes, becoming the Queen Consort of Greece. However, their marriage was short-lived, and they were divorced in 1935. After her divorce, Elisabetha returned to Romania during the reign of her brother, King Carol II. Her presence, however, became a problem for her nephew, Michael, who was also a claimant to the throne. Elisabetha collaborated with Communist opponents against Michael, fueling tensions within the royal family and the Romanian political landscape. Despite her controversial role in Romanian politics, Elisabetha's elegance and grace were undeniable. This photograph, taken in 1956, captures her regal presence and the dignity that defined her throughout her life. The image serves as a reminder of the complexities of European royal history and the intricate web of relationships that shaped it." This caption provides a historical context for the photograph of Princess Elisabetha of Romania, highlighting her role as a queen, her marriage and divorce, her return to Romania, and her controversial collaboration with Communist opponents against her nephew. The caption also emphasizes her elegance and grace, making it an engaging and informative description for viewers.
