Description
Caption: Royal Romance:Mary and PhilipKing Philip II of Spain and his bride, England's Mary Tudor and the country's first queen-regnant. Leaning much more to her ancestral Spain than to England, Mary insisted upon marrying Philip in 1554 notwithstanding the violent disapproval of her subjects. To Mary the alliance was highly romantic until she learned quickly enough, that Philip was indifferent: to Philip it was only a military and political expedient.

The front and back of this photograph are pictured below.
