1812 1850 Belgian Leopold Louise Marie Purple Ringlets Therese
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, Louise-Marie-Therese of Orléans, the beloved wife of Leopold I, King of Belgium, is captured in a moment of quiet reflection amidst the lush beauty of her garden. Dressed in a stunning purple gown, adorned with intricate floral patterns, Louise-Marie-Therese exudes an air of regal elegance and grace. Her ringlets cascade down her shoulders, framing her delicate features and adding to her youthful charm. The year was 1850, and the Belgian monarchy was in its infancy. Leopold I had ascended to the throne just a few years prior, in 1831, and Louise-Marie-Therese had become his queen consort in 1832. Together, they worked to establish a strong and stable monarchy in the newly independent nation of Belgium. Louise-Marie-Therese was born on February 12, 1812, in the Palace of Fontainebleau, France. She was the eldest daughter of Louis-Philippe I, the future King of the French, and Marie-Amélie of the Two Sicilies. Her marriage to Leopold I was a strategic alliance, designed to strengthen the ties between Belgium and France. Despite the political machinations that brought them together, Louise-Marie-Therese and Leopold I shared a deep and loving bond. They were devoted to each other and to their children, and Louise-Marie-Therese was an influential figure in Belgian society. She was known for her charitable works, her patronage of the arts, and her support of education. In this photograph, we see Louise-Marie-Therese not as a queen or a political figure, but as a woman who found joy and peace in the simple pleasures of nature. The flowers in her garden reflect the vibrant colors of her dress, and the serene expression on her face speaks of a deep contentment and happiness. This image offers a rare glimpse into the personal side of a remarkable woman who played a significant role in Belgian history.
