Empress Elisabeth of Austria (1854-1898) and Queen consort of Hungary (1867-1898) was surrounded by love and worship in Hungary during her lifetime, which increased after her tragic death. This interest and admiration towards her have not decreased over more than one hundred twenty years.

The Empress might not have been aware of the fact that it was also her, although unintentionally, who created a mysterious atmosphere around herself. She did not allow any photos taken of her after she became not much more than 29 years old (read about it more TEMPT), and soon she refused to have herself portrayed. But how did she become a legend? Read about it: TEMPT Princess.

“Authentic paintings have never been made of Mama. (…) And it will happen to everything that is said or written about her,” wrote Marie Valerie, Elisabeth’s daughter in her diary on 31 December 1898. The aim of the TEMPT – The Empress Memory Team is to keep the memory of Elisabeth alive and make an attempt to present her as trustworthy as possible.

Thanks to one of my videos, the Hungarian branch of the Habsburg family got to know my work and contacted me. Through Count János Seremetyeff-Papp, who is close to the family, they received several of my articles and short films and decided to open their family archives, which had been closed to outsiders. In recognition of my work, Archduke Michael von Habsburg-Lothringen, great-great-grandson of Queen Elisabeth, wrote a recommendation for my book, emphasising that I present authentically the life of Queen Elisabeth and her role in the Hungarian history.
