Queen Maria of Romania, Part 2

[slavona]

What happend with the Chateau Fabron from Nice that belonged to Marie`s mother? I have read that in 1924 she and Ducky were thinking of sold it.

[Eric_Lowe]

I think she must have sold it. By the time Marie Coburg died, the sisters were arguing over jewels and property, and that item was not mentioned.

Talking about mother and daughter

I can't like those hats.  Believe me, I've tried.  Is that called a cloche hat?  It hides half her face, makes her look older.

Fashion of the 1920s was really amusing. Dresses like sacks and hats over the eyes...

[Eric_Lowe]

Yes. That was the rage, but it was a style that did not suit everybody. Someone with a full face would not look good in such a hat !

I don't think this picture has already been posted before, tell me if I'm wrong.

I know Missy did not get along with her mother-in-law.

But did Infanta D. Antónia of Bragança ever visited Roumania ?

If so, are there any photos of the visit ?

[Eric_Lowe]

No. I do not think Dona Antonia visited Romania, although Missy made regular visits to Schloss Sigmarigen to see her. There is one photo of Antonia with her grandchildren. There seems not to be one of Antonia with Madi or Henriette of Belgium either.
