EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Princess Ena D880019b, also known as Princess Victoria Eugenie Julia Ena of Battenberg. The photograph was taken at Osborne House on the picturesque Isle of Wight, and it is part of the Ryde Album collection curated by Historic England Photo Library. Princess Ena's lineage boasts an illustrious heritage; she was the granddaughter of none other than Queen Victoria herself. Born in 1887 to Prince Henry and Princess Beatrice, her life would be marked by significant events and royal connections. In a momentous decision that stirred controversy, Princess Ena converted to Catholicism in 1906. This paved the way for her marriage to King Alfonso XIII of Spain, making her his queen consort. Their union bore witness to historical moments that shaped Spain's destiny. Beyond her regal ties, this enchanting image captures a glimpse into Princess Ena's childhood during the Victorian era. It serves as a poignant reminder of an era defined by opulence and tradition. Notably, this remarkable woman holds another title close to her heart – grandmother to King Juan Carlos I of Spain. Her influence reverberates through generations as she played a pivotal role in shaping Spanish history. Preserved meticulously within Historic England Photo Library archives, this print offers us a unique window into the life and times of one extraordinary princess whose story continues to captivate hearts worldwide.
