PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Franz Joseph I was the son of Archduke Franz Charles and Sophie of Bavaria. He succeeded his uncle Ferdinand I of Austria in 1848 in the midst of the European Revolution. His throne wavered in Hungary, Bohemia, Milan and Venice. With authority, he re-established order and reigned over "Mitteleuropa" for 68 years. In 1854 he married Elisabeth of Bavaria (1837-1898), better known as Sissi. Their only son Rodolphe (1858-1890) committed suicide with his mistress in 1890 in Mayerling. Empress Sissi was assassinated in Geneva in 1898. Her nephew Franz Ferdinand was assassinated with his wife in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914, triggering the first world conflict. The old emperor died in 1916 before the dismemberment of his empire two years later.
