EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, Princess Cecilie of Greece, née Princess Cecilie Sophia Helena Alice Katherine Anastasia of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, is captured in a tender moment with her newborn son, Prince Ludwig, in 1931. As the eldest child of Princess Alice of Battenberg and Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark, Cecilie was one of the four sisters of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Born in Athens, Greece, on January 21, 1906, Cecilie was raised in a royal household steeped in tradition and elegance. Her life took an unexpected turn when her family was exiled from Greece following the Greek Revolution in 1922. They eventually settled in Germany, where Cecilie met and married Ernst Ludwig, Hereditary Grand Duke of Hesse and by Rhine, in 1923. The arrival of their first child, Prince Ludwig, in October 1931, brought immense joy to the young family. In this portrait, Princess Cecilie cradles her newborn son, her expression filled with love and adoration. The photograph captures the tender bond between mother and child, as well as the innocence and purity of new life. Princess Cecilie's life was marked by tragedy, as she and her husband lost their second child, a daughter named Elisabeth, just a few hours after her birth in 1933. Despite the heartache, Cecilie continued to dedicate herself to her role as a mother and a member of the German and Greek royal families. This photograph stands as a testament to the enduring love between a mother and her child, as well as the rich history of the European royal families. The image of Princess Cecilie and Prince Ludwig, bathed in soft light and set against a neutral background, is a timeless reminder of the beauty and wonder of new life.
