1860 Arthur Connaught Crowns Daughters Ermine Louise Margaret Patricia Prussia Stately
EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant photograph captures a moment in the history of the British Royal Family, featuring Louise of Prussia, Duchess of Connaught, and her two daughters, Princess Patricia of Connaught and Princess Margaret of Connaught. The image, taken in 1917, showcases the grace and sophistication of the royal women as they pose in a grand room adorned with ornate furnishings and a magnificent fireplace. Louise, the Duchess of Connaught, was born Princess Louise Margarethe Victoria Elisabeth Agnes of Prussia in 1860. She married Arthur, Duke of Connaught and Strathearn, in 1879, bringing a Prussian connection to the British Royal Family. The Duchess is depicted here in a stunning gown, adorned with intricate beadwork and a diadem of diamonds and pearls, symbolizing her noble status. Her eldest daughter, Princess Patricia, was born in 1886, and the younger, Princess Margaret, was born in 1893. Both girls are dressed in elegant, Victorian-era outfits, complete with sashes and ermine-trimmed shawls, reflecting their royal heritage. The photograph captures the strong bond between mother and daughters, as they gaze affectionately at one another. The Duke of Connaught served as the Governor-General of Canada from 1911 to 1916, and the family spent several years in Canada during this time. This photograph may have been taken during one of their visits to the United Kingdom, as the family returned to Europe in 1917 following the Duke's retirement from his Canadian post. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the British Royal Family, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of the Duchess of Connaught and her daughters, Patricia and Margaret, during a time of great change and transition in their lives.
