EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Baptism of Prince Alexander, Prince of Orange, in 1818. The solemn Protestant service took place at the Grote Kerk in The Hague on August 24th, marking a significant event in Dutch royalty. In this enchanting image, we see Prince Alexander being administered the holy sacrament by court chaplain Rev. Krieger. Surrounding him are his parents, King William and Princess Anna Pavlovna, who beam with pride and joy as their son embarks on his spiritual journey. The grandeur of the church is evident through its magnificent architecture and ornate decorations that create an awe-inspiring backdrop for this sacred ceremony. Distinguished guests from near and far have gathered to witness this auspicious occasion but remain anonymous in our lens. Prince Alexander's baptism symbolizes not only his entrance into the Christian faith but also foreshadows his future role as a leader within the House of Orange-Nassau dynasty. As he receives this blessing under the watchful eyes of his loving family, including Queen Wilhelmina of Prussia and Crown Princess Marianne, one can't help but feel hopeful for what lies ahead for this young prince. Quint Lox's masterful capture immortalizes this cherished moment in history while paying homage to tradition and spirituality.
