Children of Archduchess Marie Valerie and Archduke Franz Salvator

[KarlandZita]

Archiduchess Elisabeth of Austria (1892-1930), surnamed Ella by her family, was the eldest daughter of Archiduchess Marie Valérie (1868-1924) and Archiduc Franz Salvator.
She was the granddaughter of emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth "Sissi" of Austria.

Does anyone have pictures of her he can post on this thread, please ?

Does anyone know, why she died so early? It´s a pity!

She died because of pneumonia.

Very nice pictures, thanks, it is really a pity that she died so early, with todays medicine this certainly would not have happened

I think some of these may have been posted on the old Marie Valerie thread (now inaccessible) so I apologize to the original posters.

When I look these various pictures, I notice that, like her cousin Erzie, Elisabeth Franzisca " Ella " of Austria, ressembled so much to her grandmother Empress Sissi.

I think Ella was the spitting image of her mother Archduchess Marie Valérie - who didn't look alike her mother Empress Elisabeth at all.

I also don't see any resemblance between Ella and her cousin Erzsi. Elisabeth Marie was a real beauty, but Ella ... She wasn't ugly as a girl and young woman, but in her thirties she looked old, sad and exhausted.

I wonder if any book talksabout this Ella and her sisters. ?

Heres a Picture of Ella with her siblings. (I like her costume, is she to be her great-grandmother Sophie?) Hedwig (i think), the girl in the bonnet, she looks exactly like her mother! wow. I can't identified the other children.

I'll try to identify them. From right: Ella, Matylda, Clemens, Franz Karl, Gertrude, Hubert, Marie and Theodor.
I suppose that this photo was taken around 1908, therefore the girl between Franz Karl and Hubert can't be Hedwig.
She was in that time 12, but that girl looks younger. It could be rather Gertrude, who was only one year older than Marie.

Was that a tableau Varient or costume party ?
