Archduchesse Maria Elisabeth, older sister of Marie Antoinette. She was set to marry the King of Naples, and Antoinette’s other sister Maria Carolina was going to marry Louis Auguste, Dauphin of France. It was only when Eilsabeth died the day before leaving for Naples that Carolina took her place and Antoinette was set to become queen of France.

About

My name is Jeff and I'm a freshman at Rutgers. I really love history, especially European history. I think Marie Antoinette is a highly mis judged figure and her life really interests me. There is a lot that I hate about the world today and sometimes I wish I could live in '20s - '50s America, or even earlier in Europe. I don't like change and I really love playing piano. I think the vast majority of movies made today are shitty and love the classic ones. I've always liked the Titanic since I was really little as well. I like both the James Cameron Titanic and the Sofia Coppola Marie Antoinette, but I do not really post from them. I'm more attracted to the history behind Titanic and Marie Antoinette. Especially with the Marie Antoinette movie, I feel that they are more glamourfications than actual histrory. I think the Marie movie was very historically accurte, but I just get the feel from vibes of the movie that it is more about Anna Wintour's idea for Marie Antoinette month in Vogue. It accuratly portrays her life, but it diddn't actually portray her life the way it would have felt to live it first hand. I do not see this as much with the Titanic movie, I just think its more original to post from real life over the movie.
