EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in history - the silver wedding celebration of the czar and czarina, held in the picturesque village of Juleboekshusene in Denmark. The image showcases an assembly of royal families from across Europe, gathered to honor this joyous event. At the center sits Queen Louise of Hesse-Kassel and King Christian IX of Denmark, known as "the handsome father of Europe" surrounded by their children. Princess Marie d Orleans and her husband Prince Valdemar are depicted behind them, while on the right side sits Albert Edward Prince of Wales (future Edward VII) with his wife Alexandra of Denmark and their son Prince Albert Victor. To the left of the Danish royal couple stand Princess Dagmar of Denmark and Emperor Alexander III of Russia, exuding regal elegance. Next to them are Royal Prince Frederik and his wife Princess Lovisa of Sweden. Completing this illustrious gathering are King George I of Greece (formerly Prince Wilhelm) alongside his wife Olga Constantinovna and daughter Princess Mary. The engraving beautifully portrays each member adorned in lavish attire befitting their noble status. This historical snapshot not only immortalizes a significant milestone but also serves as a testament to the interconnectedness between European monarchies during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at the grandeur and splendor that characterized these royal celebrations over a century ago.
