EDITORS COMMENTS
On a frosty February 27, 1881, in the heart of Berlin, an immense display of royal pomp and pageantry unfolded as Prince Wilhelm of Prussia (later Kaiser Wilhelm II) married Princess Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein. This stunning double-page spread from Mary Evans Prints Online captures the grandeur of the occasion, with the newlyweds making their way through the bustling streets of the German capital, surrounded by an army of soldiers and cheering crowds. The procession, which began at the Berlin Palace, was a sight to behold. Thousands of spectators lined the route, braving the cold to catch a glimpse of the royal couple as they journeyed to the Marble Church for their wedding ceremony. The streets were illuminated with gaslights, creating a magical atmosphere as the couple passed by. Prince Wilhelm, the eldest son of Kaiser Friedrich III and Victoria, Princess Royal, looked dashing in his full military uniform, complete with the Order of the Black Eagle. His bride, Princess Augusta Victoria, was a vision in white, her long train carried by a retinue of ladies-in-waiting. The newlyweds were accompanied by a vast procession of nobility, including members of the Prussian and Schleswig-Holstein courts, as well as diplomats and dignitaries from around Europe. The air was filled with the sound of marching soldiers and the cheers of the crowd, as the couple made their way to their new home. The marriage of Prince Wilhelm and Princess Augusta Victoria was a significant moment in German history, marking the beginning of a new reign and the start of a new chapter for the Prussian royal family. This magnificent image, captured from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of the occasion, a testament to the power and pomp of the German monarchy in the late 19th century.
