EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant and captivating photograph, Princess Theodora and Princess Margarita of Greece, the eldest children of Prince and Princess Andrew of Greece and Denmark (Princess Alice of Battenberg), are depicted in their youthful beauty. The image, taken in the early 20th century, showcases the sisters' striking resemblance and the grace that was synonymous with their royal lineage. On the left, Princess Theodora, born in 1906, later became Margravine of Baden when she married Maximilian, Margrave of Baden, in 1932. Her marriage brought her into the House of Baden, and she spent the rest of her life in Germany. Princess Theodora was known for her intelligence, charisma, and her dedication to humanitarian causes. On the right, Princess Margarita, born in 1905, later married Prince Friedrich Karl of Hohenlohe-Langenburg in 1931. She was a patron of the arts and was known for her love of music and dance. Her marriage brought her into the House of Hohenlohe-Langenburg. The sisters' connection to the present Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, is through their shared parentage. Their father, Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark, was the younger brother of Prince Constantine I of Greece, who was the father of Queen Elizabeth II. This makes the Princesses Theodora and Margarita the paternal first cousins of the Duke of Edinburgh. This photograph, a testament to the sisters' youth and beauty, offers a glimpse into the rich history of European royalty. The image, which is not for commercial use, is available as a rights-managed print from Mary Evans Prints Online.
