This seems to be the only painted representation of the arrival of Sissi, the future Austrian Empress in Vienna, two days before her marriage in 1854 with Emperor Franz Joseph I.
Our painting shows the immense triumphal arch (“Triumphhalle”) in Nussdorf, the port of Vienna, with the Emperor and his future wife greeting the Vienese crowds. The blue-white flags refer to Bavaria, the red-white ones to Austria.
Left of the couple stand Sissi’s two Bavarian ladies in waiting. On the quay waits Sissi’s future mother-in-law, Archduchess Sophie.
The composition copies an engraving, originally designed as a newspaper illustration, of the festive arrival by Vincent Katzler (1823 – 1882) from the collection of the palace of Schönbrunn in Vienna.
