Více o knize
To this day, the life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria is shrouded in myth. Known as Sisi, she went down in history as a beautiful and enigmatic woman who lived a tragic life and suffered an equally tragic end. She was the embodiment of all the glamour but also of the suffering at the Austrian imperial court in the 19th century. This biography is as fascinating as it is moving. The unusual combination of text and images brings the personal side of Elisabeth impressively close. The author has aimed to show the deep anguish of a woman trapped in her role as an empress and to describe and document her tragic life with all its ups and downs.
