Czar Nikolai II's Ankomst til Helsingør
Czar Nicholas II's visit in Helsingør
Year: 1901
Nicholas II, the last czar of Russia (1868-1918) pays a visit to his grandfather, who is none other than King Christian IX of Denmark. The monarchy had the tradition of gathering each year in September to celebrate Queen Louise’s birthday, a tradition that continued even after her death in 1898.
Parades and military processions were part of the festivities. Official photographer Peter Elfelt captured these early days of autumn 1901 on film.
