EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant photograph, Princess Marie-Louise and Princess Helena Victoria (Thora) of Schleswig-Holstein are depicted in their youthful beauty. The sisters, daughters of Princess Helena and Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein, were born in 1872 and 1877, respectively. Marie-Louise, on the left, married Prince Aribert of Anhalt in 1891, but their union was annulled in 1900. Thora, who is on the right and never married, remained a close companion to her sister for the rest of their lives. Princess Marie-Louise and Prince Aribert's marriage was a significant event in European royal history, as it was one of the last royal marriages to be arranged between two ruling houses without the consent of the bridal couple. The annulment of their marriage was a scandal at the time, with rumors of infidelity and mental instability swirling around Marie-Louise. Despite the challenges of her marriage, Marie-Louise and Thora remained close, and their bond endured throughout their lives. The photograph captures the sisters' youthful grace and the deep connection they shared. The history of the Schleswig-Holstein princesses is an intriguing one, filled with political intrigue, royal marriages, and personal trials. This photograph offers a glimpse into their lives, providing a window into the past and a reminder of the complexities of European royal history. This image is a historical print from Mary Evans Prints Online and is not to be used for commercial purposes. It is a valuable addition to any collection of royal history or European social history. The sisters' story is a fascinating one, and this photograph offers a unique perspective on their lives and the time in which they lived.
