EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Elisabeth of Wied (1843-1916). Queen consort of Romania. Summer residence," is an elegant depiction of the summer residence of Queen Elisabeth of Wied, a prominent figure in European history and literature of the late 19th century. Born into the House of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, Elisabeth was the wife of Carol I, the first king of modern Romania. The image, published in The Iberian Illustration in 1888, offers a captivating panorama of the queen's summer residence, nestled amidst a lush, verdant landscape. The tree-lined path leading to the palace, with its ornate gates, invites the viewer to explore the hidden beauty of the estate. The queen, known for her literary pursuits, is often depicted as a woman of refinement and intelligence. Her image, shown here in the company of her daughters Pauline, Sylvia, Carmen, Ottilie, Luise, and Zu, further underscores her role as a devoted mother and queen consort. The engraving, colored for added detail and depth, captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the life of a European queen and her family. The summer residence, with its picturesque gardens and serene surroundings, stands as a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the European monarchy during the late 19th century. This engraving, a beautiful work of art in its own right, serves as a reminder of the rich history and literary traditions that continue to shape our understanding of this fascinating period in European history.
