  This is the Grand Duchess Feodora of Saxony. In 1913 the famous German breeder of roses, Hermann Kiese of Wieselbach (who also edited a rose breeder's magazine), named a new tea rose in her honor, the "Grossherzogin Feodora von Sachsen." Apparently, he named another rose for the Grand Duke, but not until 1915.

• Ryan (LOC P&P) said:

  Thanks Wystan for identifying Feodora. Interesting how the names got overlaid on the negative. We'll add her name to the caption next time we update the record.

Saxony has a new king, who is a soldier with good record and a lover of music and the fine arts (LOC)
