Nice Picture!

I see that the family has a Magyar Viszla, very nice and known to be very kind and good hunting dogs. I'm not surprised since Habsburg's have always loved Dogs and especially Viszlas.

[britt.25]

That´s very interesting! I did not know that the Habsburgs are such dog lovers! Are there any further or special famous examples in the history to mention for this??
Yes, all three dogs are very nice indeed, there seem to be two brown onces and one dark (or black ) one in the family! Very beautiful

[Sir Ralph of Stradbrooke]

1) Any idea why some of the grandchildren of Crown Prince Otto (especially those of Archduke Paul Georg) seem more Hungarian than Austrian?

2) Is there any particular reason so many of the more recent Habsburgs have "Marcus d'Aviano" at the end of their strong of names? I realize Mark of Aviano was declared a saint by Pope John Paul II, and died in Vienna, but many of Blessed Karl I's children and later descendants seem to have this name.

[Greenowl]

Greetings Sir Ralph!

I also wondered about that! I don't know the answer, but at a guess I would say it is due to (a) the strong Catholic ethos of the family and (b) the links between Marcus d'Aviano and Austria....Marcus d’Aviano was an advisor on religious and political matters to Emperor Leopold I of Austria for nearly two decades as well as papal legate and Apostolic Nuncio to Austria for Pope Innocent XI. He secured the lifting of the siege of Vienna by the Ottoman Turks on 12 September 1683, helped negotiate the liberation of Buda on 2 September 1686, and of Belgrade on 6 September 1688.
