EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Queen Elisabeth of Romania, also known as Carmen Sylva, in a rare moment of personal relaxation as she plays the organ. Born Elisabeth of Wied in 1843, she became the Queen Consort of Romania upon her marriage to King Carol I in 1869. Queen Elisabeth, who was known for her intellectual pursuits and artistic talents, was an accomplished musician and often performed in public. However, this image offers a glimpse into her private musical moments. Dressed in a simple yet elegant blouse and skirt, the Queen's focus is solely on the music, her hands gracefully gliding across the organ keys. The room is adorned with ornate decorations, reflecting the opulence of the royal court. Queen Elisabeth's love for music was a source of inspiration and joy for the Romanian people, and her performances were a testament to her dedication and passion. This photograph, taken around 1910, serves as a poignant reminder of the Queen's multifaceted personality and her enduring legacy as a beloved monarch and patron of the arts.
