Departure of the Empress of Austria from Corfu - A Majestic Farewell
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, captures a momentous event in history - the departure of the Empress of Austria from the picturesque island of Corfu. The print showcases a scene filled with maritime splendor and regal elegance. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to that fateful day in November 1861 when Empress Elisabeth bid farewell to her beloved Greek retreat. The image depicts a grand ship adorned with flags and sails billowing in the wind, ready to embark on its journey across turquoise waters. Empress Elisabeth herself stands at the center of attention, radiating grace and poise. Known as Sissi or "Impress Sissi" she was not only a woman of immense beauty but also possessed an indomitable spirit that captivated all who encountered her. Her presence exudes power and femininity as she gazes out towards her destination with determination. Surrounded by ladies-in-waiting and other members of royalty, this moment symbolizes both personal departure for Elisabeth and Austria's connection to Greece. It is a testament to European unity as well, represented by their shared heritage within the European Union. This remarkable piece allows us to witness history unfold before our eyes - an exquisite blend of artistry and historical significance captured forever on paper.
