EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in 1920, we find a charming and historic gathering of European royalty at the popular winter resort of St. Moritz in the Swiss Alps. The two elder daughters of the exiled ex-King Constantine I of Greece, Princess Helen and Princess Irene, are pictured together with H.R.H. Prince Alfonso of Orleans Bourbon. The three royals share a moment of camaraderie and joy as they engage in the fashionable winter sport of skiing. Exiled from their native Greece following the country's political upheavals, Princess Helen and Princess Irene, who were also nieces of the former German Kaiser, found solace and respite in the picturesque Alpine setting. Prince Alfonso, a cousin to the King of Spain, added an additional European aristocratic connection to this royal group. The year 1920 marked a significant period in European history, as the aftermath of World War I brought about numerous political changes and exiles. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of these royals, who, despite their challenging circumstances, managed to find moments of leisure and enjoyment amidst their exile. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing the elegance, grace, and resilience of European royalty during a time of transition and change. This portrait encapsulates the spirit of the royals' winter holiday in St. Moritz, providing a fascinating glimpse into the history of European royalty during the early 20th century.
