EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, Princess Henriette of Schonaich-Carolath (1918-1972), the daughter of Princess Hermine Reuss of Greiz and stepdaughter of Kaiser Wilhelm II, is captured in a moment of tranquility at home in Doorn Castle, Netherlands. The castle, also known as Huis Doorn, served as the residence of the former German Emperor and his family after his abdication in 1918. The young princess, dressed in a pretty floral dress and sitting comfortably on a plush sofa, gazes off into the distance, lost in thought. A small table beside her is adorned with toys and other playthings, suggesting that she is in the midst of a quiet afternoon at home. The room is warmly lit, with sunlight filtering in through the windows, casting a gentle glow over the scene. The Princess's expression is serene, and her posture is relaxed, indicating a sense of comfort and contentment. Despite the challenging circumstances of her family's exile, she appears to be at ease in her surroundings. The photograph offers a glimpse into the private life of a young royal princess in the 1930s, a time of uncertainty and change in European history. Doorn Castle, located in the Netherlands, was a unique place where the German imperial family lived in exile, away from the political turmoil of their native country. The castle, which was acquired by Kaiser Wilhelm II in 1892, became a sanctuary for the family, allowing them to maintain a semblance of normalcy amidst the upheaval of the First World War and its aftermath. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, offers a poignant reminder of the human side of royalty, showcasing the young Princess Henriette's innocence and the domesticity of her life in exile. The image is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the imperial family, who found solace and comfort in their Dutch refuge.
