EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment in time as Princess Alice of Battenberg, later Princess Andrew of Greece and Denmark (1885-1969), fondly gazes at her two eldest children, Princess Margarita (standing right) and Princess Theodora, in the year 1907. Princess Alice, who was the mother of the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, is dressed elegantly in a high-necked blouse and long skirt, while her daughters, both in matching white dresses and matching bows in their hair, mirror their mother's regal presence. The family's Greek heritage is evident in their dark features and the delicate gold jewelry adorning their ears. The serene expression on Princess Alice's face speaks volumes about her deep love and affection for her children. The photograph, taken during a time when Princess Alice was still a young mother, offers a glimpse into the private world of the royal family and the bond between a mother and her children. The image is a poignant reminder of the historical significance of the Battenberg family, who would later become the Greek and Danish royals, and the enduring love that transcends the boundaries of time and tradition. Princess Alice's life was marked by tragedy and triumph. She was the granddaughter of Queen Victoria and the first cousin of King George V. Her marriage to Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark was a union of two royal families, and the couple had five children together. Tragically, three of their children died in infancy, leaving Princess Margarita and Princess Theodora as the surviving eldest daughters. This photograph stands as a testament to the resilience and strength of the royal family in the face of adversity, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her children.
