Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?

My rendition of Emperor Frederick II and Sultan al-Kāmil at the 1229 Treaty of Jaffa at the end of the sixth crusade, which was mostly negotiated in secret and negatively received but is an interesting episode

I’m reading again Ernst Kantorowicz biography about Emperor Frederick II Hohenstaufen and I happened in one of my favourite parts, the one dedicated of course to Pier delle Vigne.

This is so huge (to me) because the author here is describing Frederick and Pier basically as the “You Don`t Know Him Like I Do 😤 “ trope to each other. 

(But also: the image of a ruler and of his closest collaborator that works so good together that their plural ideas became easily one, that after eight centuries the outcomes of their partnership is still considered indivisible, you can’t understand when one finish and the other one starts etc etc).

Chur and Arosa - Switzerland

Chur and Arosa was a daytrip from Flims. Arosa the main destination via Chur, the latter a 20km bus ride from Flims. Chur was ok. Arosa, is a beautiful location. But, the train journey from Chur to Arosa is a spectacularly beautiful journey, taken along the Glacier Express/ Bernina Express route at a leisurely pace…a contradiction to its name. Glacier Express / Bernina Express Contrary to its…

Kaiser Wilhelm II appearance as a baby;

“They say all babies are alike,” wrote one German observer. “I do not think so: this one has a beautiful complexion, pink and white, and the most lovely little hand ever seen! The nose rather large; the eyes were shut, which was as well, as the light was so strong. His happy father was holding him in his arms.”

“He is growing so handsome and his large eyes have now and then a dreamy expression and then again they sparkle with fun and delight.” - Victoria, Princess Royal writing to her mother, Queen Victoria.

The Bastard Kings and their families

This is series of posts are complementary to this historical parallels post from the JON SNOW FORTNIGHT EVENT, and it's purpouse to discover the lives of medieval bastard kings, and the following posts are meant to collect portraits of those kings and their close relatives.

In many cases it's difficult to find contemporary art of their period, so some of the portrayals are subsequent.

1) Manfred I of Sicily (1232 – 26 February 1266), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and Bianca Lancia

2) His parents, Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II (1194 – 1250), son of Constance I of Sicily and Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I; with Bianca Lancia (c. 1210 – c. 1246/1248), daughter of Bonifazio d'Agliano

3) His brother, Conrad IV of Germany ( 1228 – 1254), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and his wife Isabella II of Jerusalem

4) His nephew, Conradin (25 March 1252 – 29 October 1268), son of Conrad IV and his wife Elisabeth of Bavaria

5) His brother, Henry VII of Germany (1211 – 1242), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and his wife Constance of Aragon

6) His brother, Enzo of Sardinia ( c. 1218 – 1272), son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and Adelaide

7) His wife, Beatrice of Savoy (1223 – 1259), daughter of Amadeus IV of Savoy and his wife Marguerite of Burgundy

8) His daughter with his wife Helena Angelina Doukaina, Beatrix of Sicily (1260 –1307)

9) His daughter with his wife Beatrice of Savoy, Constance II of Sicily (c. 1249 – 1302); with her husband Peter III of Aragon (c. 1239 –1285), son of James I of Aragon and his wife Violant of Hungary

Constance of Aragon's Crown - c. 1220-1222, gold and gilded silver filigree, glazes, pearls, and polychrome stones - in the Treasury of the Cathedral of Palermo, Sicily - Photos by Charles Reeza

As the result of arranged marriages negotiated by her brother, Constance became the Queen of Hungary at the age of 19, the Queen of Sicily at the age of 30 when she married King Frederick II (who was only 14 years old), Queen of Germany when she was 36 and Frederick was crowned King of Germany, and at the age of 41, when her husband became the Holy Roman Emperor, she was crowned Holy Roman Empress with this crown. She died of malaria at the age of 43 and was entombed in the Palermo Cathedral, in a Roman sarcophagus, wearing her crown.

Interesting to remember that Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, Victoria, was married to Frederick III the (briefly) German emperor, and the last German emperor Wilhelm II was Queen Victoria's eldest grandchild.

October 18th 1831: The Birth of Kaiser Frederick III

He was the eldest child and only son of Kaiser Wilhelm I and Kaiserin Augusta of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach and was raised with Prussian military customs. He found solace in his wife, Victoria, Princess Royal, the daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert who shared his liberal beliefs. They met in 1851, when Frederick’s mother sent him to see the Great Exhibition and the 11 year old Victoria was the one to guide him around the exhibition. While Frederick was only able to speak only a few words in English, Victoria was already fluent in German. Something along with the young girl’s intellect and curiosity, impressed him.

They continued to exchange letters with one another after the meeting and Frederick proposed to Victoria when she was 14 years old in 1855. They were betrothed on May 19, 1857 and then married on January 25th 1858 in the Royal Chapel at St. James’ Palace in London, the couple had a happy marriage that endured the judgement of the unwelcoming Prussian Court, and had eight children. (The future Wilhelm II being their eldest.)

They planned to rule as co rulers, similar to Victoria’s parents and attempt to liberalize the deeply conservative Germany. But that plan would not see the light of day. Just shy of his 100th days since occupying the throne, Kaiser Frederick III succumbed to a long, painful battle with throat cancer, after many unsuccessful attempts to cure him. His son — Kaiser Wilhelm II who ascended the throne right after the death of his father remarked in an emotional outburst: “An English doctor killed my father, and an English doctor crippled my arm — which is the fault of my mother.”
