EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases Empress Elisabeth of Austria, also known as Sisi or Sissi, in a solemn yet elegant pose. The portrait captures her standing with poise, displaying her three-quarter length figure adorned in a beautiful lace gown. Her plaited hair cascades down her back, adding to the regal aura surrounding her. Taken from a photograph and engraved by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the life of one of Europe's most iconic figures. Empress Elisabeth was not only admired for her beauty but also for her intelligence and free-spirited nature. However, behind this enchanting image lies a tragic fate that befell the young empress. In 1898, she was assassinated by an Italian separatist while on holiday in Geneva. This shocking event cut short the life of a woman who had captured hearts across Europe. Displayed here is just one example of how art can immortalize historical figures like Empress Elisabeth. This print serves as both a reminder of her untimely demise and an homage to her lasting legacy within Austrian history.
