The European Royal Family that Queen Victoria created
This is a very interesting group of Royal guests assembled for the wedding of the parents of the future Phillip, Duke of Edinburg: Princess Alice of Battenberg (1885 - 1969) to Prince Andrew of Greece (1882 - 1944.) The wedding was celebrated at Darmstadt in 1903. I doubt I will be able to identify all these illustrious guests, but I will list the ones I recognize. There are representatives here from the Greek, Danish, German/Hessian/Prussian, and Russian Royal Houses. I count thirty-three adults and children in this picture.
Prince Heinrich of Prussia
Princess Heinrich of Prussia (nee Irene of Hesse)
Grand Duke Sergey Alexandrovich Romanov
Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna
Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig of Hesse
Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna the Younger
Grand Duke Dmitry Pavlovich
Grand Duke George Mikhailovich
Grand Duchess Maria Georgevna
Grand Duchess Anastasia Nicholaevna
Grand Duchess Tatiana Nicholaevna
Princess Elizabeth of Hesse and by Rhine
Grand Duchess Olga Nicholaevna
Grand Duchess Maria Nicholaevna
Emperor Nicholas II
Empress Alexandra Feodorovna
Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark (Greek Nicky)
Prince George of Greece and Denmark (Greek Georgie
Queen Olga of the Hellenes
Prince Valdemar of Denmark
King Hakoon VII
There are roughly thirteen royalties I do not recognize, so if you identify anybody I haven't, please let me know. It is also possible I have made some incorrect identifications, especially among the Greek contingent.
This type of gathering stopped happening gradually, so these photos are treasures!
