About the object

A romantic love story connects Crescence von Seilern and Aspang (1799-1875) with the Hungarian state reformer, István Széchenyi. Still married to somebody else at the time, the countess entered into a lasting relationship with him. A memorial plaque in Budapest commemorates the Austro-Hungarian noblewoman.
