Princess Viktoria of Baden and her mother, Princess Luise of Prussia, were both married on 20th September, the first in 1881, the second in 1856. These photos were taken on the occasion of the joint celebration of their (50th & 25th) wedding anniversaries in 1906. The head ornaments underneath their tiaras seem to be some sort of myrtle twigs and probably refer to their special status as former brides. The Landesarchiv Baden-Württemberg has three other photos from the same sitting, two of them showing the head ornaments more clearly. I won't post the complete images, because the files are rather big, but add the permalink and references according to the Landesarchiv's terms of use.
