Elisabeth of Hesse in 1901: A Portrait of a Remarkable Princess and Mother This striking photograph captures Elisabeth of Hesse and by Rhine (1861-1955) in the year 1901. Elisabeth, also known as Elisabeth in Bavaria, was the eldest daughter of Grand Duke Louis IV of Hesse and by Rhine and Princess Alice of the United Kingdom. She was a granddaughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, making her a beloved member of the British royal family. In this image, Elisabeth is depicted in her late thirties, with an elegant and refined appearance. She wears a high necked blouse with a lace collar, a long skirt, and a small hat adorned with a veil. Her expression is serious, yet there is a hint of warmth and compassion in her eyes. Elisabeth was known for her strong character, intelligence, and compassion. She was a devoted mother to her seven children and a dedicated wife to her husband, Duke Ludwig III of Bavaria. However, her life was marked by tragedy and heartache. Her marriage was unhappy, and her husband was known for his philandering ways. Elisabeth's eldest son, Crown Prince Rupprecht, was also estranged from her for many years. Despite these challenges, Elisabeth remained a beloved figure in both the Hesse and Bavarian courts. She was known for her charitable work, her support of the arts, and her commitment to her family. This photograph is a testament to her grace and dignity, even in the face of adversity. Elisabeth's life and legacy continue to be of great interest to historians and royal watchers alike. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the life of a remarkable princess and mother, and a reminder of the complexities and challenges of royal life in the early 20th century.
