EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, King Leopold III of Belgium (1901-1983) and his Queen, Astrid (formerly Princess Astrid of Sweden) (1905-1935), are seen arriving at an official function in the late 1930s. The regal couple, both dressed in their formal attire, are greeted by a welcoming committee consisting of nurses and other dignitaries. King Leopold III, wearing his military uniform adorned with medals and insignia, exudes an air of authority and dignity, while Queen Astrid, with her radiant smile and elegant gown, embodies grace and beauty. The year was 1934, and the couple's appearance at this event marked a significant moment in Belgian history. Queen Astrid, a beloved figure in her adopted country, had married King Leopold III in 1926, and their union was celebrated by the Belgian people. Tragically, just a few years later, on January 29, 1935, Queen Astrid was killed in a car accident near Brussels, leaving the nation in mourning. This poignant image captures a moment in time when the future seemed bright for the Belgian monarchy, with their young and vibrant queen at the helm. The bouquet of flowers presented to the queen by one of the nurses serves as a reminder of the fleeting nature of life and the enduring power of beauty and hope in the face of tragedy. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, and the enduring legacy of a beloved queen who left an indelible mark on Belgian history. The image is available through Mary Evans Prints Online, and its haunting beauty continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
