EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Grand Duchess Eleonore of Hesse, nee Princess Eleonore of Solms-Hohensolms-Lich, in a tender moment at home with her two sons, George Donatus and Ludwig. The image, reproduced as a postcard for her charitable cause, Eleonorenheim, was sold in 1915. Grand Duchess Eleonore was renowned for her dedication to charity work and served as the president of the Frauenvereins, women's societies originally established by her husband, Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig's mother, Princess Alice. The history of these societies dates back to the late 19th century, when they were founded to provide support and assistance to women and children in need. Grand Duchess Eleonore continued her late mother-in-law's legacy, excelling in her role as president and expanding the reach of the organizations. The photograph, taken in a warm and inviting setting, showcases the loving bond between Eleonore and her sons. George Donatus, the eldest, is seated on his mother's lap, while Ludwig, the younger, gazes intently at the camera. The image serves as a reminder of Eleonore's role as both a devoted wife and mother, as well as her significant contributions to the charitable causes that were close to her heart. Established in 1871, the Solms-Hohensolms-Lich family was a prominent German noble house that played an essential role in the history of Hesse. This photograph, taken in the early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the personal lives of its members and the charitable work that defined Grand Duchess Eleonore's legacy.
