EDITORS COMMENTS
In this beautiful photograph, Princess Theodora of Greece and Victoria Mountbatten (1906-69), Margravine of Baden, is seen holding her eldest child, Princess Margarita Alice of Baden, at her christening in 1932. The Princess is dressed elegantly in a long-sleeved dress with a high neckline and a pearl necklace, while her daughter is swathed in layers of white lace and lace shawls. The Princess's grandmother, Princess Victoria of Hesse (1863-1950), wife of Prince Louis of Battenberg (Mountbatten), is seated to the left of the photograph. Princess Victoria, who was the mother of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, is wearing a simple yet elegant dress with a lace collar and pearls. She looks on with a proud and loving expression as her granddaughter is blessed during the religious ceremony. The photograph captures the tender moment between a mother and her grandmother as they celebrate the arrival of a new family member. The scene is filled with a sense of tradition and history, as the Princesses represent the intertwining of the Greek and German royal families. This image is a poignant reminder of the close-knit royal families of Europe during the early 20th century, and the importance of family ties and traditions in shaping the lives of the royal children. The photograph also highlights the elegance and grace of the royal women, who dressed in beautiful clothing and adorned themselves with precious jewels for the special occasion. The date of the photograph is 1932, and it is a historical record of a significant moment in the lives of the Princesses Theodora and Margarita Alice of Baden. This image is a valuable addition to any collection of royal history and European social history.
