EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the grandeur and excitement of the state entry of Princess Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein and Prince Wilhelm of Prussia into Berlin on the occasion of their wedding on February 27, 1881. The newlyweds, both beaming with joy, are seen passing beneath the iconic Brandenburg Gate in an ornate carriage, adorned with regalia and ceremonial trappings. The flaming torches and brand new whip held by the coachmen add to the pomp and pageantry of the occasion. Princess Augusta Victoria, dressed in an elegant white gown and veil, and Prince Wilhelm, resplendent in his military uniform, are greeted by cheering crowds and well-wishers lining the streets. Cherubs and other decorative elements adorn the carriage, adding to the fairytale-like atmosphere of the scene. The Brandenburg Gate, a symbol of peace and unity, stands as a backdrop to this historic moment in German royal history. The gate, which had been damaged during the French occupation of Berlin, was restored just in time for the wedding procession. The image captures the joy and hope of the moment, as the happy couple embarks on their new life together as Prince and Princess of Prussia. This photograph is a testament to the grandeur and tradition of royal weddings, and offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Germany in the late 19th century.
