EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite photograph captures the ethereal beauty and grace of Princess Alice, Duchess of Hesse-Darmstadt (1843-1878). Born as the third child and second daughter of Queen Victoria, Alice was raised in the royal household and was known for her kind and compassionate nature. In 1862, she married Grand Duke Louis IV of Hesse-Darmstadt, and the union produced eight children, including Tsarina Alix of Russia. The photograph, taken during the prime of her life, showcases Alice's striking features - her delicate porcelain skin, her piercing blue eyes, and her elegant posture. Her regal bearing is evident, yet there is a warmth and approachability in her expression that belies her royal status. Alice's marriage to Grand Duke Louis was a happy one, and they were deeply devoted to each other. Tragically, Alice's life was cut short at the age of 35 when she succumbed to diphtheria, leaving behind her husband and their growing family. Her death was a great loss to both the Hesse-Darmstadt and Russian royal families. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the life of a remarkable woman - a loving wife, a devoted mother, and a cherished member of the British and Russian royal families. The image captures the essence of Alice's beauty and grace, making it a treasured keepsake for those who appreciate the history of royalty and the enduring legacy of the Victorian era.
