EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking portrait, Princess Elisabeth of Greece and Denmark, the second daughter of Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark, is captured in the prime of her youth. The photograph, taken in 1924, shows Elisabeth in an elegant and refined manner, wearing a simple yet elegant dress with a pearl necklace adorning her neck. Her dark hair is styled in soft waves, framing her delicate features. Princess Elisabeth was born on August 25, 1904, in Athens, Greece. She was the sister of Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent, and the niece of King Constantine I of Greece. Elisabeth's early life was marked by the political instability and turmoil in Greece, which led to the royal family's exile in 1922. In 1926, Elisabeth married Count Lutz von Toerring-Jettenbach, a German nobleman, and took the title of Countess. The couple settled in Germany, where they raised their three children. Elisabeth was known for her kindness, generosity, and her dedication to philanthropy. She was particularly interested in helping children in need and supported various charitable organizations. This portrait captures the grace and beauty of Princess Elisabeth at a young age, before she became Countess Toerring-Jettenbach. It is a testament to her regal bearing and the elegance of the Greek royal family. The photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era and the rich history of European royalty.
