EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a collection of exquisite wedding presents bestowed upon Her Royal Highness Princess Alice Maud Mary of Hesse and By Rhine in 1862. The most striking of these gifts is a magnificent jewelled fan, a generous offering from Maharaja Duleep Singh of Hindoostan. The fan, crafted in gold, boasts intricate designs on both sides. On one side, the English rose is delicately carved from a large ruby, surrounded by emerald leaves, and embellished with large pearls and lilac enamel. The monogram of Alice Maud Mary, A.M.M., is elegantly inscribed in diamonds, rubies, and emeralds. The reverse side showcases orange-blossoms and buds, composed of large pearls, cut emerald leaves, and the monogram in Gothic letters. The fan's loop is formed by the letters D.S., representing Maharaja Duleep Singh's Oriental monogram. A gold chain with two large emeralds for tassels and a series of pearls suspended between the links completes the fan's ornate design. This breathtaking fan, as featured in the Illustrated London News in 1862, is a testament to the rich cultural exchange between Britain and India during the 19th century. The fan's intricate craftsmanship and the significance of its origin make it an invaluable artifact in the history of royal weddings and the artistic traditions of the time.
