Summary[edit]

Description

Marie of Baden, Princess of Leiningen (1834-1899)

This is a copy by William Corden (1819-1900) of the portrait of the Princess by Albert Graefle and it was painted for Queen Victoria at the time of the Princess’s marriage. Princess Marie was the daughter of Leopold, Grand Duke of Baden and in 1858 she married Ernest, Prince of Leiningen. Her aunt, Princess Feodora, described her to Queen Victoria as ‘a sweet, amiable creature, you will like I am certain, I think they promise to lead a happy, comfortable life together ... I am convinced she is the wife for him’. Queen Victoria was very fond of her and said ‘A sweeter, gentler, more congenial being I do not know. She is quite like my own daughter’.
