Question

Who was the most beautiful Queen in Europe, in history?

Answer 1

Queen Sophia, currently Queen of Spain. Queen Sofía is both a great-great-granddaughter (paternally) and a great-great-great-granddaughter (maternally) of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom and is, through several lines, her husband's third cousin. Because of this descent, she is also related to all of the royal families of Europe. She is a first cousin of Ernst August of Hannover (Pretender), and through her great-grandfather George I of Greece, she is a second cousin to Charles, the Prince of Wales. Through Christian IX of Denmark and Queen Victoria, she is a double third cousin to Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom. She is also a first cousin once removed of Queen Elizabeth II's husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

Answer 5

Well, it's a bit unfair because we don't have portraits of all of them, but by portrait, word of mouth and photograph, I would say Sissi, Empress Elizabeth of Austria, wife of Francis Joseph II.  Sad and beautiful, and they usually go together.

Answer 6

The French Queen Consort of Louis XVI of France, Marie Antoinette (November 2, 1755 - October 16, 1793). She was born an Archduchess of Austria, and later became Queen of France. She was widely commemorated for her acts of charity; in one incident, she personally attended to a dying man and arranged for his family to receive an income in his wake. The queen made many changes at the traditional French court. Some changes, such as the abolition of segregated dining spaces, had already been instituted for some time and had been met with disapproval from the older generation; more importantly was the abandonment of the wide-hooped panniers and heavy make-up for less make-up and plainer clothing, such as polonaises and, more famously, the muslin dresses which were captured by a 1783 Lebrun portrait of the queen. She also began to participate in amateur theatrics, starting in 1780, in a theatre built for her and other courtiers who wished to indulge in singing and acting. Marie Antoinette's temperament was more suited to her children, whose education and upbringing she personally saw to. This was against the mode of Versailles, where the queen usually had little say over the "Children of France", as royal children were called, and they were instead handed over to various courtiers who fought over the privilege.
