EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of the British Monarchy, as Edward VII, the eldest son of Queen Victoria, is seen with two of the daughters of his late sister, Princess Alice of Hesse and by Rhine, during his visit to Darmstadt, Germany, in around 1884. Edward, who would later ascend to the throne in 1901, is depicted here in his late thirties, exuding an air of regal confidence. His sister, Princess Alice, had tragically passed away in 1878 at the young age of 35, following a long battle with diphtheria. She had left behind six children, the two eldest of whom, Victoria Melita and Irene, are seen in the photograph, warmly embracing their uncle. The image offers a glimpse into the complex web of European royal connections, as well as the close bond between Edward and his late sister's family. The visit to Darmstadt was significant, as it marked the first time that Edward had met his nieces since Alice's death. The warm reception he received from his nieces and their mother, Grand Duchess Alice, helped to ease the grief of losing his beloved sister. The photograph, taken circa 1884, is a poignant reminder of the personal relationships that existed between members of the European royal families during this period. It also highlights the close ties between the British and German monarchies, which would be tested in the years to come due to the political tensions leading up to World War I. This historical photograph, from the esteemed Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique insight into the lives of the British and German royals during a time of change and upheaval, and serves as a testament to the enduring bonds of family and heritage.
