It seems that the characters who once wore tattoos were all of the same ilk: rude sailors, circus performers or soldiers. Surely the fact that Princess Maria de Orleans wore one at the end of the XNUMXth century left many people speechless.
Yes, Maria de Orleans was a rebel with crown and a tattoo that he wore proudly on his arm, as we will see below in this article.
An aristocrat with French roots
Maria de Orleans came to Denmark in 1885 to marry Prince Valdemar in a marriage that was not considered done for political reasons, but for love (strange thing back then). The princess was heir to the Orleans of France, the last kings to reign before the republic.
Upon arrival, she found a somewhat cold climate, as one of the Danish newspapers accused her of being a simple pawn, because she only contributed a sum of money and no profitable political connection, while a gossip magazine, although it valued her rank, he did not consider her pretty. However, Maria's character would soon win them all.
The soul of the party
In a time of change, the Danish court was somewhat rigid and dull. However, Maria de Orleans soon changed things: his cheerful character and his talent for painting transformed the court into a much more lively place, frequented by all kinds of artists.
In addition, she herself was quite a character: She loved firefighters and even designed their uniform, and even though she was one of the first to test the car, she always loved to ride a horse and had a habit of going uphill on a bull! And we do not forget her tattoo, made on her left arm: an anchor to remember the bravery of sailors and the long periods spent on the high seas by her husband, Prince Valdemar, a naval officer in her country.
Maria de Orleans was undoubtedly a peculiar princess, right? Tell us, did you know this princess? Remember that you can tell us everything you want, for this, you just have to leave us a comment!
