EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the regal presence of King Haakon VII and Queen Maud of Norway, taken around the year 1905. Haakon, born as Prince Charles of Denmark, ascended to the Norwegian throne following Norway's declaration of independence from Sweden. His wife, Maud, was the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Wales. The image showcases the royal couple in formal attire, exuding an air of sophistication and grace. Haakon, dressed in a dark suit and wearing the insignia of the Order of the Seraphim, stands confidently with his hands clasped behind his back. Maud, wearing an elegant white gown adorned with intricate detailing, sits gracefully on a chair, her hands delicately folded in her lap. Their union represented a new chapter in Norwegian history, as well as a symbol of Scandinavian unity. The photograph captures the deep connection between the king and queen, their shared commitment to their people, and the strength of their marriage. Haakon and Maud's reign marked a period of stability and progress for Norway, and their legacy continues to be celebrated in Norwegian culture. This photograph serves as a testament to their enduring love and commitment to their country.
