Emperors elizabeth of austria, also known as sissy, was assassinated in 18. 98, september 10th. Marks the 125th anniversary of her death.

Today im in vienna, tracing the 1st steps of one particularly beloved 19th century royal and the empress elizabeth or cities is famous for eccentricities. She had attached to work tired and drunk line to breakfast every day for women who went against the great theres something enticing about this and pursuing to more than just to produce errors. But what is it exactly the drama, the Traffic Events in her life as a love affair, she was assassinated when she was 61 years old. All this is an except for fascination. My 1st stop of the day is the whole sport imperial palace. This was the Political Center of the monarchy, and today it feels the same roles, the democratic republic, every former austria and imprison amber and live here, including the city. Of course, our old rooms have been turned into museum. And since i admit, simply had never heritage secede before i moved to germany. I think i better start here. First of all and i actually was impressed elizabeth or 62 was do we impressed the white glove in preference . Joseph. So she was a member of the house, but didnt seem to you repeat in a royal dignity which actually was one of the leading families of europe perhaps. But in pile part time in germany and austria to see is an icon. Her life has inspired several films. Im guessing the feeling that people have this kind of obsession with her. Why do you think thats it . The more we get this thing from her actually lifetimes of the more she becomes zip of the cultural phenomena. Because during the lifetime she mullis withdrew from public life as she poured all the conservative traditions of hapsburg court. Where is now the issues more as a symbol of this hops for dentistry. Ah, shes like the colony caps berg about a time, although she actually was a complete mislead cute in her life times in the palace turned to museum. You can see the gymnastics out for us, but she used every morning as well as her bath tub. Since the apparently took warm box and olive oil, she spent much of her time in her private rooms. Here. My next stop is viennas empress elizabeth memorial in the folks garton here i meeting officer interest guide. Were not a whole fellow. I think she was looking for a real, a real personal happiness. But everything that she could find at the cords was 15 s rules and she have to present and settling and to put for the children of course, male children. So she was reduced to that and she was criticized all the time for everything and how she behaved to us on the rec, 6 for nowadays we know it is rotating in unhappiness in not being understood in, in the psychological problems. Were not, it takes me to shouldnt one palace. It was the summer residents of the hapsburg family. So she spent a lot of time here. So did so she actually wants to be an infant. I dont think so. She loved, she fell in love with francis joseph. Yeah. And she, i think she wanted to have a good marriage. Yeah. Loving marriage. And she told her mother, oh, i wish she was a taylor. So can you tell me about the assassination of this . Yeah, she was fascinated finding talent and our kids things while she was traveling to switzerland, he didnt really have anything against her personally. He just wanted to strike the monarchy or the uh so he uh, the feudal system. A tragic end to a tragic life. Now that ive learned so much by the empress, her life or history, i want to see if i can get a taste of what her life is like here in vienna for that, im visiting one of the oldest and most for 9 confectionary. Kathy j mail has been a v in these institutions in 178650 was very fond of their delicacy, violets full of some of the cities favorite suites. My next and final self of the day is a very special one.

C had a case executive like this, and they looked exactly like cartoon stars, the dare i ask how much Something Like this cost this g r o, like it is here. Its about 77000 years. Okay, so ill just sit here very carefully. Hows it being fun to death our toes is the world the fis fostering empress . Honestly, it seems like sissy was pretty eye clinic.

But how swedish is it really in 2018, a post on the countries, official ex account triggered lots of comments. It said that swedish king charles the 12 had brought the recipe for should be long. Back from todays turkey in the early 18th century.

So how does the brand to maintain its appeal a century later . Its switzerland, only fashion label, to present its own collections and perish shows these rice mutual feelings how i dont know if we would be talking here. If i hadnt taken this step yourself, take this winter pile. Did you think that its wonderful to have studios in the same column . If not before i look look to and then, and i continue to make all the collections from there, but to communicate with the world. Parents, as best as, as part of the brand was in the didnt to the official program of the Parisian Chamber of host. Could you in 2004. It was a great honor but also up the pressure on design or albert chrysler designed to truly can be seen on the course. That was a key moment for our company and its entire history. When they moved from that moment onward, i had to create this image every season a pile. And of course i needed to have consistently aimed to make wearable modern clothes a light on the often time list. But i interesting point percent, and i wanted to find an additional method like 272. 00 sets. May see ive been very subjectively applied. The 1st inspiration from artist low into because i sometimes just colors and sometimes themes and much my eh team and but he needed more the design or didnt want to simply draw inspiration from the artist. He wanted to work with them. One of his closest collaborations is with japanese architect, soul, food. You multiple color was particularly fascinated by his 2013 temporary installation shown in london, entitled the serpentine gallery pavilion is done done for these advice. And boy, i stood in front of this white cloud and thought, wow, the scene minimalistic architecture can be so sensual 9, its the same thing.

And i said, have this, i want to meet him to the step on protecting murder, scanning the, the Fashion Designer and the architect ended up meeting in paris and tokyo, where they formed a strong bond. Convers flags gets information from my architecture, then she transformed by his own way. So shes works is already something new for me, but still have a connection collaboration resulted in the 2016 summer collection, currently being shown in the museums. Gustavo in zurich, the 100 the anniversary of the Family Business gave way to the current exhibition. The fashion house was once bounded by albert king lewis, grandmother, who sold aprons. See her english stick wound and black because she actually created the basis for what we do today. The applied flour and i and we closed women who make things move in life on. So have to die. And back then that she made clothes for working women, one of as well as a brand for mothers for day to day tasks that i see in clyde. And now were continuing their traditions all over the world. Ive got some very turn to my son. So right and theres even a princess wearing his creations. Sharlene princess at monaco, cream were 1st met her in his boutique and the tiny country 13 years ago. And shes been wearing actress, dresses regularly, ever since. Like this one. This had to young completed. Koch and she werent at the grand prix last year, in particular. Shes the head of me, of us, 40 modern woman, and when shes being herself, which she cant always be. But i really appreciate that. So. Yeah. And so were here to help in seeing the same fit on now to stay whether as a princess business woman, mother, or artist, you have to feel fashion not just see. And thats the swift designers mano. And thats why visitors to is exhibition even sometimes gets a try on the catch me, your coats the the habit and the lord of the rings are 2 of the most popular works by the author, j. R. R. Tolkien. But which really place to serve as models or inspiration for the fantastic all settings in the books. British author and talking expert john garth shares, some of his knowledge magical landscape transposed into this cinematic version of people are a fictional fantasy world. World war between good and evil is being waged on a grand scale in the hobbit and lord of the rings. British author, j. R. R. Tolkien thought up this setting for his novels and described it in detail. But he himself spent most of his life in oxford. In his book, the world of j. R. R. Tolkien. John garth describes what places inspired the british fantasy officer. This is not in college, but what i told him was professor of english language and literature from 1945. This was when he was just nearing the end of writing a lot of the rings. He was writing the, the last 2 books, including the battle scenes administering, which is a fantastic medieval city. And if youre inside the, inside the quote, and so the quote rankles is very much like the inside of mid eagle city. But oxford wasnt the only source of inspiration for minnes, tara, the capital of gun door. Literary works also played a role such as the Divine Comedy by dante, a getting. This isnt interpretation by italian painter, son, joe. But the challenge he just use whatever was convenient to him, he use the scenery around oaks that the barriers were Standing Stones in, in the hills, rattles and things like that. He used, i believe, memories, scenes from weeks he had been on so confused, memories, fantasy and reality together. And one place that surely inspired him was barrington folly tower. Near oxford, it resembles the towers of the else or the tower of the source of our ceremony in isaac gar. So this is found to fully in 1936, a painting of the tower, and the landscape is used by shell oil and its petrol advertising. And a noisy, so he set them tilting paintings and now very famous pictures, hope it some a hill where Bilbo Baggins lives. And i believe strongly that if you look at that painting and you can see distinct similarities the dylan, the landscapes of the english countryside tokens, childhood also influenced his image of the shire home to the hobbins. Hes an idea of club. It houses overgrown with grass, possibly came from tales that iceland to go. Paris told his sons about trolls and pete covered houses. So places he had never seen himself also made their way into his fantasy world tokens and travel much. But i think that was actually for practical reasons. He had a very, very memorable trip to switzerland and 1911. And i believe he actually went up the river rolling to get there on the, on the boat. And both of these things seem to have inspired a great deal of, of what he wrote. I mean, any, any mountain scene in the whole bunch of Little Things goes back to that swiss trip in 19 on one place. And this was else that stuck in tokens. Memory was the picturesque town if allowed to put on in the rift valley home to the elves was modeled after it. Later in the films, more visual touches were ad and tokens. Voyage through the rhine valley also appears in his books when the and when river. The pillars of the kings in arkansas may have been inspired by ancient statues, perhaps of egyptian barrows and there was one more source of inspiration to be found in oxford. This is a todd, very famous public lynch while were talking on these friends, including c. S. Lewis, but known it is used to meet every tuesday. They will say they, they would do other things. They went to a country woods, sometimes they went on working trips, and i think some of that said into the descriptions of the hobbits working in the shop. Even when the hobbits tracked through the scenery of new zealand, the influences of oxford shes cleared to see with his books g r r token, laid the foundation for the visually stunning world.
