EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic beauty and poised elegance of Princess Sophie Chotek of Bohemia (1872-1914), Duchess of Hohenberg, the little-known yet pivotal figure in European history. Sophie's story began in 1899 when she married Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, in a morganatic marriage - a union that was not recognized by the Habsburg court or the Catholic Church due to Sophie's non-aristocratic background. Despite the social stigma, the couple's deep love for each other shone through, and they spent their time together in the peaceful retreat of their Hohenberg estate in Austria. However, their happiness was short-lived as they were tragically assassinated in Sarajevo on 28 June 1914, an event that ignited the spark of the First World War. This image, taken in 1909, showcases Sophie's striking features, her piercing gaze, and her elegant attire, which reflects the opulence and refinement of the Austro-Hungarian era. The portrait serves as a poignant reminder of a woman who, despite the challenges she faced, remained steadfast in her love for her husband and her commitment to their marriage, ultimately leaving an indelible mark on history.
