[Carolath Habsburg]

its very weird! cause it doesnt look like Maria.

[Rani]

Looks more like Eugenie. But not every painter is talented.

[Carolath Habsburg]

Now that you mention Eugenie, yes it does!!. Anyway, its nice to see a new image of Maria since they re not so common

Exactly. I've seen portraits of famous persons where I'd never have guessed who they really showed. lol Just look at how many paintings from Sisi exist and how less the persons shown look like her.

[Carolath Habsburg]

Thanks go9d for pictures cause you can NEVEr trust in a painter! (it changes  extremely the face of the sitter making them look or way beautiful than the real person , ejem Queen Victoria, or like a different person)

[Eric_Lowe]

Yes more like Empres Eugenie.

[Yelena Aleksandrovna]

I think that definitively the lady portrayed there isn't Marie, she must be Eugenie of Montijo (the eyes are similar and the shape of the face) or another lady...

[Eric_Lowe]

Maria Sofia was much prettier. 

[Carolath Habsburg]

It can be Maria Sophia, its just that the painter wasnt that "accurate" with her face. Thats all

[Eric_Lowe]

You mean the clothes ? If it was, it was a bad representation. 

[Zukunftsseele]

Maria Sofia was much prettier. 

Oh, I have seen ugly pictures of Sisi as well. lol

[Carolath Habsburg]

I said face.

[Eric_Lowe]

The face is not Maria Sofia at all. period.

[Carolath Habsburg]

Doesnt look like her but ITS her. Damn, poor painter he must be rolling and jumpin in his grave cause he was not talented enough to portray properly Maria Sophia.

Happens always, its just go and see Elisabeth s and Eugenie`s topic.

[Eric_Lowe]

I don't think so. It looks nothing like her. You can call a photo of Betty White Princess Alice too if you want...
