The discreet assassination of Sisi, the empress-heroine of romanticism

Isabel Amalia Eugenia of Bavaria (1837-1898), who is known in history and popular literature as well as in cinema as Sisi, had a life as a heroine of romanticism, but also death. Very beautiful, Empress of Austria by marriage to Franz Joseph I, her personality was very different from that of the films played by Romy Schneider.
She was a cultured, rebellious woman who loved to travel and was open-minded. After the death of her son, Rudolph in the so-called "Mayerling Crime" that was never clarified, whether it was a suicide or a conspiracy, she sank into melancholy and accepted black as the only color for her clothing. Unable to conform to the strict etiquette of the Viennese imperial court, a close friend of her cousin Louis II of Bavaria, another famous misfit, depression was no stranger to her. Her eldest daughter, Sofía Federica, died of typhus at just two years old, and Sisi was accused of neglect, so she was denied the upbringing of her other offspring, who were raised by her mother-in-law and archenemy, Archduchess Sofia. The empress never recovered from these misfortunes, and devoted herself to learning languages; spoke 5: German, English, French, Hungarian and Greek and traveled. It was during these trips that he met his unusual death.
On September 10, 1898, while walking on the shores of Lake Leman in Geneva with one of her ladies, she bumped into a man while boarding the ferry. After the blow, Sisi fell to the ground, but got up as if dazed and continued on his way. Still on the ship, he started to feel dizzy, he couldn't breathe, and when he undid his dress, he discovered that he had been hit by that man with a knife right in the heart. The man was the Italian anarchist Luigi Lukeni, who was caught and sentenced to life imprisonment. Sisi died the same afternoon due to the over-healed wound. /bota.al
