"Leopold III: A Royal Legacy and Patron Saint of Austria" In this captivating collection of images, we catch glimpses of the remarkable life and influential reign of Leopold III. Born as the young Prince Leopold, Duke of Brabant, he stood to attention alongside his esteemed father, King Albert I, during the tumultuous years of World War I in 1915. Marriage brought him great joy and strength as he wed Astrid of Sweden, who would become Queen of the Belgians. Their black-and-white portrait showcases their regal elegance and enduring love. Leopold III's connection to Austria is beautifully depicted through various artworks. The lithograph captures a momentous occasion when the Sovereigns of Belgium visited Rome. Additionally, Albrecht Durer's masterpieces portray both Saint Leopold himself and other patron saints from Austria with intricate detail. The photographs reveal different stages in Leopold III's life journey. As Crown Prince Leopold, his destiny was already unfolding before him - one that would lead him to become King Leopold III. Another photograph from c1910 shows a young prince full of promise and potential. Austria holds a special place in history for its veneration towards Saint Leopold III - a woodcut image depicts this revered figure against the backdrop of Klosterneuburg in all its splendor. This saintly monarch reigned over Austria centuries ago but remains an everlasting symbol even today. Finally, we encounter another side to this multifaceted ruler through an enchanting colour lithograph capturing his presence at Klosterneuburg in Austria. It serves as a reminder that beyond his royal duties lay a man deeply connected to spirituality and faith. Leopold III's reign as King left an indelible mark on Belgium between 1934-1950; however, it is these diverse snapshots that allow us to appreciate the depth and richness of his life.
