EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative page from The Sketch magazine, dated November 1913, documents the forthcoming visit of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his family to England. The Archduke, accompanied by his wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, and their three children, Prince Maximilian, Prince Ernest, and Princess Sophie, were set to stay with King George V and Queen Mary at Windsor Castle. The visit was highly anticipated, as it marked the first time the Austrian royal family had traveled to England since the marriage of the Archduke and Duchess in 1900. The serene image of the family, with their children playfully posing for the camera, stands in stark contrast to the tragic events that would unfold just seven months later. In June 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated in Sarajevo by Serbian nationalists, an act that would ignite a powder keg of tensions among the European powers and ultimately lead to the eruption of the First World War. This poignant snapshot of a moment in history serves as a reminder of the fragile peace that existed in Europe at the time and the unforeseen consequences of political instability. The visit to England in 1913 would be one of the last peaceful moments for the Austrian royal family before their lives were forever changed by the cataclysmic events of the following year.
