EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Queen Marie Josee of Yugoslavia (nee Marie Amalie Mignon of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, 1900-1961), her regal presence radiating warmth and love as she tenderly cradles her youngest son, Crown Prince Andrej, flanked by her eldest sons, Peter II and Tomislav. Daughter of the last King of Romania, Carol I, and a direct descendant of Queen Victoria, Marie Josee became Queen consort of Yugoslavia upon her marriage to King Alexander I in 1921. The image, taken in 1961, showcases the intimate bond between mother and her sons, a testament to their unwavering love and support for one another. Marie Josee's gentle touch and nurturing gaze convey the deep connection she shared with her children, who were central to her life as a queen and a mother. The historical significance of this photograph lies in the unique blend of European royalty and the personal moments it captures. Marie Josee's lineage, as a descendant of Queen Victoria and the last King of Romania, adds an intriguing layer to her story. Her time as Queen of Yugoslavia was marked by political turmoil and personal tragedy, including the assassination of her husband, King Alexander I, in 1934. Despite these challenges, she remained devoted to her role as a mother and continued to guide her sons through their formative years. This poignant photograph encapsulates the essence of a mother's love and the enduring legacy of European royalty. Marie Josee's story is a testament to the strength and resilience of the women who have shaped history, and the profound impact they have had on the lives of their families and their nations.
