Funeral of Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria. The Emperor kneeling by the coffin in the vault of Capuchin's Church January 30th 1889, found in a hunting lodge at Meyerling, the bodies of the Rodolphe archduke, heir to the Austrian imperial crown, and his mistress, the young person baronne Marie Vetsera. This drama gave place to various assumptions, but the version most usually allowed remains that of double suicide.
