Paul Doumer (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Out to Lunch said:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Doumer. You'll see a cut-out of this photograph on the wikipedia page. Former Governor-General of French Indo-China and French President. Assassinated in 1932.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Out to Lunch: Thank you for your information on Paul Doumer. We will add some of it to the record description when we update.
  • Out to Lunch said:
    Hi Library! Perhaps also of interest is the 'Villa Blanche' or White Villa which was built for Doumer as a summer residence in the Vietnamese coastal town of Vung Tau. It is now a landmark building and well preserved with some of the original furnishings intact. Doumer named the villa after his favorite daughter 'Blanche'. I took this photo of the Villa in 2009 and you are free to use it: .

    What event made him newsworthy early in 1914 (when the photo was placed in the Bain News Agency's photostream)?

Elizabeth -- Murdered Empress of Austria (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • trialsanderrors said:
    The world famous. Elisabeth of Bavaria (24 December 1837 – 10 September 1898) was Empress of Austria and Queen consort of Hungary as the spouse of Franz Joseph I. As such, she held also the titles Queen consort of Bohemia, Queen consort of Croatia and others. From an early age, she was called “Sisi” by family and friends. ("Sissi" as in the film or in the animated series is the French translation.)
  • Arden said:
    trialsanderrors: Thanks for the additional information on Elisabeth of Bavaria. We will add some of it to the image description when we update.

Earl of Mayo Richard Southwell (Bourke)

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

  • 9 older comments, and then…
  • John Spooner said:
    "Lord Mayo was stoutly built, with a frank, good-looking face, upon which a smile generally was to be found" - from his obituary following his assassination at Port Blair on the Andaman Islands in 1872. The photograph doesn't seem to have captured his smile.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner thanks.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    From Wikipedia, it looks like the Bourne & Shepherd name only started being used in 1866.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sharon Corbet I will update date range.
  • John Spooner said:
    He didn't become Viceroy of India until 1868 and didn't arrive in India until January 1869 - I doubt he would have used Bourne and Shepherd's services before that.

    Advert from Times of India - Thursday 20 March 1884.
