Diagram Hanover Hanoverian Bicentenary
EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking family tree print, published in The Graphic magazine in 1914 to mark the bicentenary of the House of Hanover, offers a fascinating glimpse into the complex web of royal lineage that connected King George V and Queen Mary to their distant ancestor, King James I. The House of Hanover, which ruled the British monarchy from 1714 to 1901, is depicted in this detailed diagram, which highlights the intricate relationships between its various branches. At the heart of the tree is King James I of England and Scotland, who reigned from 1603 to 1625. From him, the tree branches out to include the electors of Hanover, the kings and queens of Great Britain, and various other European monarchs. The branches converge once again in the figure of King George V and Queen Mary, who are shown as the final twigs on the tree. The House of Hanover's connection to the British monarchy began in 1714 when the childless King George I, a Hanoverian, ascended to the throne. The family's influence continued through the reigns of his successors, including George II, George III, and George IV, until the accession of Queen Victoria in 1837. This historical family tree print is a testament to the rich and complex history of the House of Hanover and its enduring impact on the British monarchy. It serves as a reminder of the intricate connections that bind together the various branches of European royalty and the ways in which history continues to shape the present.
