EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, the Danish Royal Family is captured in a moment of pure joy and sisterly camaraderie during a sporting event in Copenhagen in 1913. The image features an amused Queen Alexandra, the Duchess of Fife and former Queen Consort of the United Kingdom, sharing a hearty laugh with her sisters, Princess Marie Bonaparte of Greece and Princess Olga of Cumberland, as well as her son, Prince Waldemar of Denmark, and her daughter-in-law, Duchess Thyra of Cumberland. The sisters, all daughters of King Christian IX of Denmark, are joined by their brother-in-law, Prince George of Cumberland, and the Dowager Empress of Russia, formerly known as Princess Dagmar of Denmark. The Dowager Empress, who was married to the late Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, Feodorovna, adds an intriguing international flair to the gathering. The cause of their laughter remains a delightful mystery, but it is evident that the family's bond transcends the formalities of royal life. The sisters' shared history and the warmth of their relationship are palpable, making this candid moment a treasured snapshot of European royal history. The photograph offers a rare glimpse into the personal lives of these esteemed royals, revealing a side of them that is often overlooked in the annals of history. The image is a testament to the enduring power of family connections and the importance of shared laughter in creating cherished memories.
