EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures a historic moment in European royal history, as King George V and Emperor Kaiser Wilhelm II come together in a show of unity during the procession to the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, marking the occasion of Princess Viktoria Luise of Prussia's wedding to Prince Ernest Augustus of Brunswick-Luneburg on May 3, 1913. The young and elegant Queen Mary and Kaiserin, Empress Frederick, can be seen in the background, watching the procession with regal composure. The military presence is prominent in the scene, reflecting the grandeur and tradition of the time. Princess Viktoria Luise, the only daughter of Kaiser Wilhelm II, was marrying Prince Ernest Augustus, the son of the Duke and Duchess of Cumberland. The royal wedding brought together two of Europe's most prominent royal families, symbolizing a moment of unity and peace amidst the political tensions of the time. The Brandenburg Gate, an iconic symbol of Berlin and Germany, serves as the backdrop for this significant event. The gate, which had been closed since the French occupation of Berlin in 1806, was reopened for the occasion, adding to the grandeur and historical significance of the moment. The photograph captures the essence of the royal procession, with the two monarchs, their wives, and the military marching through the streets of Berlin, making their way to the Brandenburg Gate for the wedding ceremony. The scene is a testament to the grandeur and tradition of European royalty, and the unity and cooperation between two powerful monarchies.
