  Princess Sophie Helene Cecilie of Schönburg-Waldenburg (21 May 1885 - 3 February 1936) was the wife of Prince William of Wied. With her husband's ascension to the Albanian throne she became the Princess of Albania (Albanian: Princeshë e Shqipërisë). Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Sophie_of_Sch%C3%B6nburg-W...

  Belle epoque 1900s: thank you for identifying this woman. She does appear to be Archduchess Maria Immakulata of Austria. We will add her fuller name to the information when we update the database.

  On taking another look at this image, the title of the photo indicates that it probably shows Princess Sophie Helene Cecilie of Schonburg-Waldenburg who was the wife of Prince William of Wied, Prince of Albania. We will include this information with "probably" in the description, until more information becomes available. Maria Immakulata of Austria and Princess Sophie do look very similar.
