"Princess Alice: A Royal Journey Through Time" Step into the enchanting world of Princess Alice, H. R. H. The Princess Alice, a captivating figure whose life was filled with love, tragedy, and resilience. From her birth in 1843 to her untimely death in 1878, she left an indelible mark on history. In 1862, the young princess embarked on a fairytale union as she married Prince Louis of Hesse. This momentous occasion was beautifully captured by an unknown artist in a stunning portrait that still mesmerizes viewers today. Camille Silvy's lens immortalized Princess Alice during her formative years from 1860 to 1869. Her grace and poise radiate through each photograph, showcasing her innate elegance and regal demeanor. John Jabez Edwin Mayall's camera lens captured another side in his striking portrait from 1861. With eyes full of wisdom beyond her years, she exudes strength and determination. Tragedy struck when the Thames claimed the lives of many aboard the ill-fated ship "Princess Alice" in 1889. In a haunting black-and-white photo taken after being rescued from the river's depths, we witness Princess Alice's resilience amidst unimaginable grief. The collision on the Thames forever changed Princess Alice's life but did not define it entirely. Lithographs depicting this great disaster serve as reminders of both human fragility and unwavering courage. An intriguing lithograph portrays Empress Frederick (Victoria), revealing their close bond as mother and daughter-in-law—a testament to their shared strength within royalty’s demanding realm. Engravings documenting the recovery efforts following "The Great Disaster on the Thames" showcase Princess Alice's compassion for those affected by tragedy—an embodiment of empathy seldom seen among royals. Relive every magical detail surrounding their royal wedding through exquisite engravings capturing moments that will forever be etched in history.
