EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the moment of revelry and celebration at the banquet given at the Koubbeh Palace in Cairo following the wedding of Egypt's young King Farouk and his bride, Queen Farida, in January 1938. The image showcases the newlyweds in their regal attire, with King Farouk wearing the traditional Egyptian headdress and Queen Farida adorned in an elegant white gown and a veil. However, the significance of this moment extends beyond the opulence of the palace setting. Queen Farida, who had worn the veil during the marriage ceremonies, chose to discard it at the banquet, marking a symbolic step towards asserting her independence and agency within the royal household. At just 18 years old, King Farouk was the youngest reigning monarch in the world at the time, and the couple's marriage, which ended in divorce in 1948, was fraught with challenges and controversies. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of Egyptian royalty and the complexities of the monarchy during a pivotal period in the country's history. With its grandeur, intrigue, and a hint of rebellion, it serves as a captivating reminder of the past and the enduring allure of the Egyptian monarchy.
