EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning front-cover wedding portrait captures the grandeur and elegance of the marriage of Princess Victoria Melita of Hesse-Darmstadt and Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig of Hesse on July 31, 1894, at Coburg. Princess Victoria Melita, born on November 25, 1876, was the eldest daughter of Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, and a granddaughter of both Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom and Tsar Nicholas II of Russia. Her groom, Ernst Ludwig, was her paternal first cousin and the heir to the Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt. The wedding ceremony took place in the Coburg Palace Chapel, followed by a grand reception at Schloss Friedrichsbad. The couple's union represented a significant political alliance, as Hesse-Darmstadt was a German state with close ties to the Russian and British monarchies. The image showcases the newlyweds in their regal attire, with Victoria Melita wearing an intricately designed wedding gown and Ernst Ludwig in his military uniform. The portrait exudes an air of sophistication and happiness, capturing the joy and excitement of their special day. However, the marriage was not to last, as the couple divorced in 1901, citing irreconcilable differences. Despite the divorce, Victoria Melita remained a significant figure in European royalty, and her life continued to be marked by love, loss, and intrigue. This beautiful wedding portrait is a testament to the grandeur and tradition of European royal weddings in the late 19th century and offers a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating historical figures.
