Tragically, Albert died just six weeks later, a victim of the influenza pandemic that swept across Britain in the winter of 1891-2. Despite this painful loss, Queen Victoria still favored Mary of Teck as a candidate to marry a future King, and Albert s brother, Prince George, evidently became close to Mary during their shared period of mourning. In May of 1893, George proposed, and Mary accepted, marking the start of a successful, loving marriage that bore six children. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 214017
