EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the four sisters of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, are captured in a moment of shared history. The image, taken in 1930, features Princess Margaret of Greece and Denmark, top left, who later became Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon; Princess Sophia of Greece and Denmark, top right, who became Princess Sophia of Hesse and by Rhine; Princess Cecilie of Greece and Denmark, bottom right, who became Grand Duchess Cecilie of Hesse and by Rhine; and Princess Theodora of Greece and Denmark, bottom left, who became Margravine Theodora of Baden. All four sisters were born into the Greek royal family but married German minor royals. Sadly, none of them were invited to the royal wedding of the Duke of Edinburgh and Princess Elizabeth of York in 1947. The sisters' relationships with their brother were reportedly strained due to their marriages to German nobility during World War II. Princess Cecilie's tragic story stands out among the sisters. She is seen here in a happy moment before her untimely death in a plane crash in 1937. Tragically, she was traveling with her husband, Prince Georg Donatus of Hesse and by Rhine, their two children, and an unborn fourth child to attend the wedding of Prince Leopold of Belgium when the plane went down. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities of royal family dynamics and the personal stories that lie behind the public image of royalty. The sisters' shared heritage and the contrasting paths their lives took make for a compelling family portrait.
