The illegitimate daughter of furstin Therese of Thurn und Taxis

The portrait is by Joseph Stieler painted in 1828. She is Amalie "freein" Von Kruedener 1808-1888. She was born out of wedlock and her mother was Furstin Therese von Thurn und Taxis, sister of queen Therese of Bavaria. Her father was Count Maximilian Von Lerchenfeld. She was adopted by countess Lerchenfeld-Kofering in Regensburg. She married Freiherr von Kruedener consul at  the Russian embassy in Munich. The second time she married count Nikolaus Adlerberg, "adjudant" of the Tsar whom she knew as she was lady of honour of the Tsarina in St. petersburg. It is likely that queen Therese of Bavaria (her aunt) interfered in her well being, as Therese did with all her family members. Queen Therese was very popular in Bavaria and liked for her good nature and interest in all people.
