EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion - the wedding of Prince Sigvard of Sweden and Fraulein Erika Patzek, daughter of a prominent Berlin industrialist. The ceremony took place at the historic Caxton Hall register office on 8th March 1934. In an unprecedented move, Prince Sigvard chose love over his royal title, forfeiting his rank upon marrying Fraulein Erika. From that day forward, he would be known simply as Mr Bernadotte. This decision added an air of intrigue to the already glamorous event. The image showcases the couple standing side by side in their elegant wedding attire. Fraulein Erika's exquisite wedding dress exudes timeless beauty with its intricate lace details and flowing silhouette. The prince looks dashing in his tailored suit, embodying regal charm even without his former title. Surrounded by family and friends, this photograph encapsulates not only a union between two individuals but also represents a significant moment in European history during the 1930s. It serves as a reminder that love knows no boundaries or social constraints. Alfieri's monochrome composition adds depth to this historical snapshot, emphasizing the emotions captured within it. As we gaze upon this image from another era, we are transported back to witness a remarkable celebration filled with hope for a future built on love and unity.
