EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment before Princess Irene of Hesse, dressed in her bridal finery, was presented to the court before the marriage ceremony to Prince Heinrich of Prussia at Charlottenburg Palace in Berlin on May 24, 1888. The mirror reflects the princess's resplendent attire, with its voluminous white gown, long train, and intricate lace veil, as she makes final adjustments to her appearance. Surrounded by her bridesmaids, pages, and court officials, the princess exudes a sense of calm and serenity before the grand ceremony. In the background, guards in their ceremonial uniforms stand at attention, adding to the formal and regal atmosphere of the scene. The room, adorned with ornate furnishings and rich fabrics, further emphasizes the grandeur and opulence of the occasion. Prince Heinrich, who would later become the last Crown Prince of Prussia, is not present in the photograph, but his absence only adds to the anticipation and excitement of the impending union between the royal couple. The intricate details of the bridal outfit, from the delicate lace on the veil to the elegant folds of the gown, are a testament to the meticulous planning and preparation that went into making this a truly memorable and historic event in the annals of royal history.
