In particular, the great vintages of the Madeira wines from 1795 to 1916 (also some bottles of the Empress Elisabeth's birth year 1837) and, finally, rare Tokaj wines, which can only be seen today in the Tokaj Museum.

Famous artifacts from the wine treasury:The original painting of the Empress Elisabeth of AustriaA whole body portrait of the Empress in the Madeira travel dress from court painter Horowitz 1898 Was sold to the Schönbrunn Palace on 29 March 2017 by the Kunstsammlung Kaiser Franz Joseph Privatstiftung. |
Panorama pictures in the vault room of the K.u.K.Weinschatzkammer with the life-size original Sisi Paintings of the art collection Emperor Franz Joseph Privatstiftung, which was bought and picked up by Schönbrunn on 29.3.2017.
Archduchess Marie Valerie wrote in her diary on 31 December 1898.
The artist himself wrote about his portrait of Sisi completed in 1899:
| In a black dress without any signs of representation, with the hair crown instead of the real crown - this was the way in which Elisabeth portrayed herself in public.
This portrait mirrors the true myth of her majestic beauty - but also the spiritual condition of the Empress after the tragic death of her only son Rudolf. This is evident in her eyes. It is probably the most sensitive painting of her true personality that an artist could ever create. The painting was commissioned by Emperor Franz Joseph personally and later bequeathed to Countess Maria Theresia of Harrach, born Princess of Thurn und Taxis. Today it is the attraction of the Wine Treasure Vaults in Vienna. "On the instructions of His Majesty a studio in the Imperial Palace was set up for me in order to complete the oil painting so that I could more easily seek the advice of the Emperor. |
|
As soon as I believed I had made some progress in the development of the painting or I was unsure, the comments of the Emperor encouraged me and enlightened me. His advice was given to me in such a tactful way that the freedom of my intuition was never under pressure or in question. On the day that I felt that I had achieved the deciding touch in the work the emperor agreed with me and was overjoyed saying "But now you must not touch it anymore!" |
