The Archduke Franz Ferdinand and Sophie his wife were there too. He would have succeeded to Franz Josef had he not been murdered, but his marriage was morganatic (Sophie was a countess or duchess, I don’t remember, but she was not of royal blood so their children could not have inherited the throne) so Karl or his children would anyway have succeeded at some time. All very sad really.
Splendide immagini!!che bellezza!sembrano tratte da "il mondo di ieri" di Stefan Zweig.
Grazie!
In 1911 Karl was not the heir to the throne, that was Franz Ferdinand.
Sophie the Duchess of Hohenberg was a very tall woman.
Es wäre total spannend zu wissen, wer da wer ist im Film.
Kaiser Franz Josef ist dabei. Schade, daß da Elisabeth nicht mehr lebte. Hätte man sie mal "live" sehen können

Hogy tudták magyar királlyá választani az akkori politikusok… ez volt a magyarok veszte!
