Description from the seller
Antique Swedish Royal Family Photo Album – Complete Collection of 94 Vintage Photographs (Early 20th Century)
Description:
Offered for auction is a remarkable antique photo album containing a complete collection of 94 vintage black-and-white photographs depicting the Swedish Royal Family and nobility from the early 20th century.
The photographs feature historical portraits of prominent royals, including King Oscar II, King Gustaf V, Crown Prince Gustaf, Princess Ingeborg, Prince Carl, and various princesses and princes in formal and candid settings. Many prints bear traditional Swedish captions and publisher markings (such as Axel Eliassons Konstförlag, Stockholm, and Hofatelier Jaeger).
Condition Report:
Photographs: The 94 photographs are in good to very good condition, with sharp contrasts, clear details, and well-preserved imagery.
Album: The album itself is in poor, fragile condition. The pages show significant wear, tear, and susceptibility to splitting/cracking along the edges and binding.
Despite the condition of the album pages, the photographs themselves are beautifully preserved and remain securely held within the corners. A wonderful historical lot for collectors of Scandinavian royalty and antique photography.
