EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Empress Elizabeth of Austria, a remarkable figure from the late 19th century. Painted in 1883 by Anton Romako, this oil on canvas portrait captures the elegance and grace of the Empress. Empress Elizabeth, also known as Sisi or Sissi, was born in Bavaria in 1837 and married Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria at a young age. As Queen of Hungary and Bohemia, she held significant influence within the Habsburg dynasty. In this portrait, Empress Elizabeth is depicted wearing a stunning tiara that accentuates her regal presence. However, what truly sets this image apart is the unexpected inclusion of a St. Bernard dog by her side. This eccentric detail adds an intriguing layer to her persona. Known for her unconventional nature and free spirit, Empress Elizabeth often sought solace in nature and animals during turbulent times. The presence of the St. Bernard symbolizes both her love for animals and perhaps hints at her desire for companionship amidst royal duties. Displayed at the Osterreichische Galerie Belvedere in Vienna, Austria, this painting offers viewers a glimpse into the life and personality of one of history's most fascinating figures. With its impeccable attention to detail and masterful brushstrokes by Romako himself, it serves as a timeless tribute to Empress Elizabeth's beauty and enigmatic character.
