Gertrude de Pelichy - Portrait of the Emperor Joseph II - ca. 1784
height: 297.5 cm (117.1 in) Edit this at Wikidata; width: 215.5 cm (84.8 in)
Groeningemuseum, Bruges, Belgium
Joseph II (German: Josef Benedikt Anton Michael Adam; English: Joseph Benedict Anthony Michael Adam; 13 March 1741 – 20 February 1790) was Holy Roman Emperor from 18 August 1765 and sole ruler of the Habsburg monarchy from 29 November 1780 until his death. He was the eldest son of Empress Maria Theresa and her husband, Emperor Francis I, and the brother of Marie Antoinette, Leopold II, Maria Carolina of Austria and Maria Amalia, Duchess of Parma. He was thus the first ruler in the Austrian dominions of the union of the Houses of Habsburg and Lorraine, styled Habsburg-Lorraine.
Joseph was a proponent of enlightened absolutism; however, his commitment to secularizing, liberalizing and modernizing reforms resulted in significant opposition, which resulted in failure to fully implement his programs. Meanwhile, despite making some territorial gains, his reckless foreign policy badly isolated Austria. He has been ranked with Catherine the Great of Russia and Frederick the Great of Prussia as one of the three great Enlightenment monarchs. False but influential letters depict him as a somewhat more radical philosophe than he probably was. His policies are now known as Josephinism.
He was a supporter of the arts, particularly of composers such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Antonio Salieri. He died with no surviving offspring and was succeeded by his younger brother Leopold II.
Gertrude Cornélie Marie de Pélichy (1743 – 1825) was a painter from the Northern Netherlands active in Paris and Bruges.

Miniature of Marie Antoinette, dated shortly before her execution in 1793. Interestingly, it's inscribed with her initials of her full original name, M.A.J.J., for "Maria Antonia Josefa Johanna" from before she adopted the French version of her name that she is most well known by.

“It is encouraging to know that some royal families are becoming more open-minded and progressive, letting their family members marry whomever they wish, no matter the race, religion and social status like Countess Mary Von Habsburg, a native of Sudan, is the wife of Ferdinand Leopold Joseph Count von Habsburg of Austria. On 28 August 1999 she married Count Ferdinand Leopold Joseph von Habsburg-Lothringen in Nairobi, Kenya. Their marriage was seen as controversial due to her socio-economic class and race. Otto von Habsburg, then head of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine, gave the couple his blessing. She and her husband have four children: 2 sons and 2 daughters. ❤” - Submitted by Anonymous

The pistol that shot and killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 sparked World War I.
The gun is now on display in the Vienna Museum of Military History, where it is touted as the weapon responsible for the death of 8.5 million people.
Archduke Franz Ferdinand Carl Ludwig Joseph Maria of Austria (18 December 1863 – 28 June 1914) was the heir presumptive to the throne of Austria-Hungary. His assassination in Sarajevo was the most immediate cause of World War I.

I just saw a post of yours about the Habsburg and also because of your boy king au I think what I’m about to say might interest you. (Why do I sound like I’m giving out a great prophecy or like some shady back alley deal ffs 🤦🏽‍♀️ but anyway)
It lives rent free in my mind that the current heir apparent to House of Habsburg-Lorraine is a racing driver himself and has won Le Mans (I think in LMP2 but I’m not into WEC so don’t really know)
Just blew my fucking mind when I learnt about this.
AND his sister is married to Jerome d’Ambrosio so every time I see Jerome in the Mercedes garage I’m always reminded of it
YES omg this haunts me too, like how the hell is a Habsburg a racing driver??? 😭😭 Apparently I can't avoid racing nor Habsburgs no matter what I do. I've actually talked about it a bit on here before
Well the craziest thing to me ig, is the fact that now that Mick is on the same WEC team as Ferdinand Habsburg, the irl Habsburg Emperor that boy king Seb is based on is now only six degrees of wikipedia separation away from actual Seb LOL. Not that it makes it an any better or legitimate of an AU, but just the fact that they're actually not that far removed is so crazy to me. Because there definitely wasn't this close a connection back when I made the AU, so the fact that it's developed like this is funny to me. The six degrees to me are:
Charles VI(guy who boy king Seb is mainly based on) -> Francis I(his son in law) -> House of Habsburg-Lorraine -> Archduke Ferdinand(WEC driver) -> Alpine A424(WEC car) -> Mick Schumacher -> Sebastian Vettel
