Princess Marie of Edinburgh, more commonly known as Marie of Romania; Marie Alexandra Victoria (October 29, 1875 – 18 July 1938), the last Queen consort of Romania as the wife of King Ferdinand I, vintage 7 x 9 press photograph with daughter Princess Ileana. Dated October, 1926.

As queen, she was very popular, both in Romania and abroad. In 1926, Marie and two of her children undertook a diplomatic tour of the United States. They were received enthusiastically by the people and visited several cities before returning to Romania.

Born into the British royal family, she was titled Princess Marie of Edinburgh at birth. Her parents were Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh and Grand Duchess Maria Alexandrovna of Russia. Marie's early years were spent in Kent, Malta and Coburg. After refusing a proposal from her cousin, the future King George V, she was chosen as the future wife of Crown Prince Ferdinand of Romania, the heir apparent of King Carol I, in 1892. Marie was Crown Princess between 1893 and 1914, and became immediately popular with the Romanian people. Marie had controlled her weak-willed husband even before his ascension in 1914, prompting a Canadian newspaper to state that "few royal consorts have wielded greater influence than did Queen Marie during the reign of her husband."

Front bears original printer touch-up, cropping edits and noatations. Verso bears original handwritten ID and notations, date stampings and 2 affixed press clippings. In very good condition showing light signs of wear and handling.
