EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment in history as Princess Louise of Mecklenburg-Strelitz arrives in Berlin for her marriage to Crown Prince Frederick III of Prussia on 22 December 1793. The image showcases the princess leaning out of her carriage, tenderly kissing one of the young girls who line Unter Den Linden to greet her. However, amidst this display of affection, the Countess of Voss can be seen expressing shock and disapproval at the future queen's behavior. The scene is beautifully depicted with vibrant colors in this 19th-century German School lithograph. It was later featured in "Die Konigin Luise" a book by Paul Kittel published in Berlin in 1896, which tells the story of Queen Louise's life. The photograph not only highlights the joyous occasion but also provides insight into the customs and attire of that era. The elaborate costumes worn by both women reflect their royal status and add an air of elegance to the scene. Princess Louise's arrival marks an important chapter in Prussian history, symbolizing unity between two influential families. This historical moment reminds us of the power and significance behind royal unions throughout European history. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into a significant event while capturing emotions ranging from delight to disapproval among those present on that memorable day in Berlin over two centuries ago.
