Archduke Friedrich (1856-1936) and his family

[PrinceEddy1864]

Maria Christina and Maria Anna
Natalie (?), Isabella with little Isabella, Gabrielle and Maria Henriette (?)

I think Natalie is to the far RIGHT in this photo and Marie Henriette far LEFT. It also looks to have been taken in 1893 around the time of Marie Alice's birth.
Therefore..lets consider this one.

This must have been taken before Natalie's death in 1898, as the youngest, Marie Alice, does not look to be quite 5 yrs old in it. Therefore I think Natalie is also in this one at the TOP RIGHT. Compare her with the girl standing far right in the first photo.

Then Marie Henriette seated center. It looks like one of the two eldest is not pictured to me, Marie Anna I think.

I could be wrong of corse.

This is what the archive in Vienna says about this picture:
Maria Christina (left) and Maria Henriette (right) at the top, the little girl is Maria Alice, Maria Anna is the one with the dogs, next to her is Gabrielle and the girl in the chair is Isabella

I agree, but would say that Maria Anna is next to Maria Christina and Maria Henriette is the one with the dogs ... I don't think that Natalie is in the pic though.

Ok this picture disproves my theory. As Sveta was correct, Nathalie is seated to the left of her mother in the first group shot and Marie Henriette is far right. Therefore the girl to the top right in the photo with the dogs is infact Marie Henriette like the archive says. She had a more distinctive face and bangs than her two elder sisters I think.

I found two more pictures with Natalie. They're from the same sitting.

Oh GREAT pictures MC.


Natalie looked more like Fritz. You can really see this in the last one.

A single photo of Natalie has been recently added to the ONB on-ilne archive.
