“Beauty is truly subjective; Princess Victoria of Prussia was not considered attractive in her day, yet I personally think she was a beautiful princess. It's unfortunate that her last days were marked by sadness.” - Submitted by cenacevedo15

Moretta looks so beautiful!! 🥺🤍🫶
Photograph of Princess Viktoria of Prussia in her wedding gown, from her first marriage to Prince Adolf of Schaumburg-Lippe.
In the corner is written “For remembrance of Moretta for my beloved Grandmother”, with the date 11.19.1890.
I think it’s sweet that she sent a photograph of her in her lovely gown like that to her grandmother and, I assume, wrote that on it herself.

AWWH THIS IS SO HEARTWARMING🥺❤
Alexandra, Princess of Wales and some of the children of Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Germany, Victoria, Sophie and Waldemar, c. 1874.
They [the Prince and Princess of Wales] visited Fritz and Vicky, who told her mother; "I thought darling Alix in spite of all fatigues... looking very well - and lovelier than ever! My children went wild about her, and little Sophie would not leave her side, but followed her about like a little dog, calling her 'pretty Auntie'"

"Another development now emphasised the fact that I was no longer a young girl. A few days after my confirmation, on my mother’s birthday, my father unexpectedly made me Colonel-in-Chief of the 2nd Guards Hussar Regiment—the Death’s Head Hussars as they were known—which filled me with joy, naturally. The 2nd Guards Hussar Regiment had previously had my grandmother, Empress Victoria, as its Chief and part of its title embodied her name. The year before my appointment the Regiment had celebrated its hundredth year of existence, though its traditions went back to 1741 when the Guards had been founded by Frederick the Great. However, after reporting to my father I received the officers of what was now my Regiment and the Commandant, Colonel Krahmer, introduced each one to me. The Commander of the XVII Army Corps, Cavalry General August von Mackensen, who had begun his career in the Guards Hussars and later commanded the Guards Hussar Brigade, was also present. Both von Mackensen and Krahmer—who later became a General—reached a venerable old age, each exceeding ninety, and both survived beyond 1945 to witness the destruction of the German Empire. Krahmer was in Potsdam when the Russians came; von Mackensen died in a farmyard near Celle after fleeing to Lower Saxony. It was there that this great cavalry leader and true servant of his Kaiser found his final resting-place. I kept in constant touch with them both until they died. n August 1910, I had to lead my Regiment in a march past before my father, but it was not as easy as it sounds. I had endlessly to practise the proper pace on my two horses, Rosi and Portas, riding side saddle, too. Iregretted being a female. At last the day arrived. The sun shone brightly over the parade ground and I led the 2nd Guards Hussars, riding ahead of its commander, past the Kaiser. The first march past was at walking pace, the second at the gallop. It was terribly exciting for me—and very exacting, for we had mounted at half past nine in the morning, and with only a brief rest of twenty minutes we rode until a quarter past three in the afternoon. After that we had a meal in the Mess, and although I didn’t have to make a speech, I did have to give the toast to the Kaiser which made me extremely nervous. Finally, it was all over and I had the feeling that it had been the most wonderful day of my life".
