EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, taken in 1923, we see Princess Margaret of Greece and Princess Theodora of Greece, the eldest children of Prince Andrew of Greece and Princess Alice of Battenberg. The sisters, both born in Athens, Greece, are seen here in their youthful beauty and elegance. Princess Margaret, on the left, was born on August 18, 1905, and was later married to Prince Friedrich Karl of Hohenlohe-Langenburg in 1931. Princess Theodora, on the right, was born on October 30, 1906, and was later married to Prince Philip of Hesse and by Rhine in 1932. The sisters' connection to the British Royal Family is significant, as their brother, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, would later marry Queen Elizabeth II in 1947. The close relationship between the sisters and their brother is evident in this photograph, as they gaze at each other with affectionate smiles. Princess Margaret and Princess Theodora were raised in a royal household filled with tradition and protocol, and their elegant attire reflects the refined sensibilities of their upbringing. The sisters' grace and poise are on full display in this portrait, which captures a moment in time when they were just beginning to make their mark on the world. As members of the Greek and then the German royal families, the sisters' lives were marked by both privilege and challenge. They faced exile, political upheaval, and personal loss, but they remained devoted to their families and their duties. This photograph serves as a reminder of their enduring bond and the beauty and grace of their youth. The photograph is a testament to the rich history and complexities of European royal families, and it offers a glimpse into the lives of two remarkable women who played important roles in the 20th century.
