“I am curious about Princess Elizabeth of Greece and Denmark, because unlike her sisters Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark( later Duchess of Kent) and Princess Olga of Greece and Denmark( later Princess of yugoslavia). I am wondering how her short life kinda went, how she became the Countess of toerring-jettenbach, her difficulties in exile, and her family relations with russia, denmark etc. She is interesting” - Submitted by Anonymous

Hola, una compatriota aqui. Solo queria compartirte esta foto en mejor calidad y decirte que me encanta tu tumblr. Mi personaje favorito de la realeza es la reina Maria Sofia, también por supuesto me interesan sus hermanas, así que me encuentro como pez en el agua leyendo tus posts. Gracias.

¡Hola! Muchísimas gracias por compartir la foto, y por tus palabras. Es de la misma sesión que compartí el otro día, pero no es la misma foto! Fijate que el perro está de costado, mientras que está dado vuelta en la foto de abajo:

Los demás también tienen poses distintas. Además se ve que era Marie Gabrielle la persona que acá tiene la cabeza "cortada". Con esta ya tenemos tres fotos de esta sesión (acá abajo la tercera):

Me alegra mucho que te gusten mis posts! De hecho tengo uno nuevo sobre Marie en borradores, a ver si lo termino en estos días. ¡Saludos!

The future King Albert I and Queen Elisabeth of the Belgians.

Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna the Elder had allegedly hoped that her daughter, Elena Vladimirovna, might marry the then-Prince Albert, heir to his uncle King Leopold II's throne. But before a visit to Russia could be arranged, the Belgian prince announced his engagement to Duchess Elisabeth in Bavaria, a niece of the famous Sisi. Funnily enough, Elena's middle daughter Elizabeth of Greece would grow up to marry a nephew of Queen Elisabeth's, Karl Theodor zu Toerring Jettenbach, the eldest son of Queen Elisabeth's sister Sophie.
