Augusta Augustine Covers Exile Hohenzollern Magazines Manuel Portugal Portuguese Tatler
EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking cover image from The Tatler magazine, dated 1914, features King Manuel II of Portugal and his wife, Queen Augusta, on the front page. King Manuel, who spent the majority of his exile in England, is depicted in regal attire, wearing the Order of the Tower and Sword, while Queen Augusta, formerly Princess Augusta Victoria of Hohenzollern, looks radiant in a flowing white gown adorned with pearls. The couple's presence on the cover of this prestigious British magazine reflects their enduring popularity and the public's fascination with their story. King Manuel's exile began in 1910 when the Portuguese Republic was established, leading to the abdication of his father, King Luis I. Manuel and his family were forced to flee Portugal and seek refuge in England. Despite the political turmoil, the royal family remained in the public eye, and their presence in London attracted much attention. The image of Manuel and Augusta on the cover of The Tatler captures a moment in history when the Portuguese monarchy was in exile, yet their popularity and influence continued to resonate with the British public. The couple's union brought together the Portuguese and German royal houses, reflecting the complex web of European royal connections at the time. This cover is a testament to the enduring allure of royalty and the power of the media to capture and share significant moments in history. The image of King Manuel and Queen Augusta on the cover of The Tatler serves as a reminder of their exile and the intricate tapestry of European royal history.
