EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in European royal history, featuring Princess Alexandra of Denmark (1844-1925) and her family, including her father, King Christian IX of Denmark (1818-1906), Queen Louise of Denmark (1817-1926), and her younger sister, Dagmar, who would later become Tsarina of Russia (1845-1928). The image, taken around 1860, showcases the close-knit relationship between the Danish royal family members before they went on to marry into other European monarchies. Princess Alexandra, who is depicted in the center of the photograph, would later marry Prince Albert Edward of Wales in 1863, becoming the future Queen Consort of the United Kingdom. Her father, King Christian IX, played a crucial role in the unification of Denmark and was known as the 'Father-in-law of Europe' due to the numerous European royals who married into his family. In this photograph, the family members are dressed in elegant Victorian attire, with Alexandra wearing a high-necked blouse and a long, flowing skirt. Her sister, Dagmar, is seen wearing a similar outfit, while their mother, Queen Louise, is pictured in a more relaxed, open-collared blouse. King Christian IX, the patriarch of the family, is dressed in a formal suit and a sash adorned with the Dannebrog Order. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of the Danish royal family before they embarked on their respective journeys to rule other European countries. The image is a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of European royal families during the Victorian era and the significant impact of their marriages on European history.
