Congrats to your new niece, Elizabeth! Also congrats to your brother and sister-in-law!
Congrats, Uncle!
Sissi!
Gott erhalte Franz, den Kaiser,
Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!
Lange lebe Franz, der Kaiser,
In des Glückes hellstem Glanz!
Ihm erblühen Lorbeerreiser,
Wo er geht, zum Ehrenkranz!

Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!
Congratulations Timbro and family! Hope mom and baby are doing well!
OK. So, is this a portrait of Elizabeth of...Austria? Bohenia? Aargghh -- the one who married Mad King Ludwig of Bavaria. Or am I 'way off the mark? (Btw, who was the artist? Winterhalter? That gauzy confection of a gown is to die for.)
The artist was Winterhalter, yay :-) but the subject: Elisabeth of Bavaria, b. Dec. 24, 1837 – d. Sept. 10, 1898. Empress of Austria, Queen of Hungary and Bohemia. Spouse of Francis Joseph I.
As for the Mad King Ludwig of Bavaria connection -- if any -- I'm at a loss.
Yes, as DW spotted, Austria's beloved Sissi-- or Elisabeth, if you will.
Thanks for the well wishes.
Tim and all,
I'm not sure I'm following the references but I just have to say....
THERE YOU GO BAREING SHOULDERS AGAIN YOU SHAMELESS THING!
