EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting engagement portrait, Princess Cecilie of Greece, born in 1911 and known as Cecile, is radiantly beautiful as she gazes into the eyes of her beloved fiancé, Hereditary Grand Duke Georg Donatus of Hesse & by Rhine. The photograph, taken in 1931, captures the tender moment between the royal couple as they prepare to embark on their lifelong journey together. Princess Cecilie was a beloved member of the Greek Royal Family, and her engagement to Grand Duke Georg Donatus marked a significant union between the Greek and German royal houses. Cecile was the younger sister of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, who would later marry Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom in 1947. The Hereditary Grand Duke, born in 1902, was the eldest son of Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig of Hesse & by Rhine and Princess Victoria Melita of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. The couple's engagement was announced in October 1931, and they were married on June 13, 1931, in Athens, Greece. This exquisite portrait offers a glimpse into the romantic history of two European royal families, and the love shared between Princess Cecilie and Hereditary Grand Duke Georg Donatus. Their union was short-lived, however, as both were tragically killed in a car accident in 1937, leaving behind their two young daughters, Princesses Irene and Elisabeth. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and traditions of European royalty, and the enduring power of love and commitment.
