EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, taken in September 1898, Dowager Empress Marie Feodorovna of Russia (1847-1928) is seen with her sister, Queen Alexandria of Great Britain, formerly Princess Dagmar of Denmark (1844-1925). The sisters are seated together, with Marie Feodorovna on the left and Queen Alexandria on the right. Both women are dressed in elegant, ornate gowns, reflecting their high-ranking positions in European royalty. Marie Feodorovna, born Princess Dagmar of Denmark, became the Empress Consort of Russia in 1866 when she married Tsar Alexander III. After Alexander III's death in 1894, Marie Feodorovna became the Dowager Empress upon the accession of her son, Tsar Nicholas II. Queen Alexandria, born Princess Alexandra of Denmark, became the Queen Consort of the United Kingdom in 1863 when she married the future King Edward VII. Edward VII ascended to the throne in 1901, making Alexandria the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland. The two sisters, despite their different royal roles, remained close throughout their lives. In this photograph, they are seen laughing and enjoying each other's company, showcasing the strong bond between them. The image is a poignant reminder of the personal relationships that existed between European royals during this era, as well as the shared history and cultural ties between Russia and Great Britain. This photograph, taken in 1898, is a testament to the enduring friendship between Marie Feodorovna and Queen Alexandria. It is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the lives of two influential women who played significant roles in European history. This image is a must-have for any collection focused on European royalty, Russian history, or the history of the British monarchy.
