EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of "The Ex Emperor Karls New Home in Madeira" a Portuguese archipelago located north of Tenerife, Canary Islands. The image showcases the villa where ex-King Karl and ex-Queen Zita are expected to arrive shortly aboard the Warship HMS Cardiff. It is November 12,1921, and this temporary accommodation near Funchal will serve as their refuge. Charles I of Austria or Charles IV of Hungary sought exile on Madeira during this time, finding solace at Villa Vittoria, adjacent to Reids Hotel. As seen in the monochrome portrait, palm trees frame the scene, adding a touch of tropical elegance to their new abode. This photograph from Central News offers a glimpse into an intriguing chapter in European history. It transports us back to the 1920s when political upheaval forced monarchs into unfamiliar territories. Despite their circumstances, there is an air of dignity surrounding King Karl and Queen Zita as they embark on this new chapter. As we admire this vintage snapshot captured by Europeana Photography, it reminds us that even amidst turmoil and displacement, one can find tranquility in unexpected places. This image serves as a testament to resilience and adaptability while showcasing both natural beauty and human strength within its frame.
