BLESSED KARL I OF AUSTRIA - Last emperor of the Austro-Hungarian empire and a tireless servant in the quest for peace during World War I. He died a most holy death and his body is incorrupt. Below is the reference photo of the emperor that I used for this sketch. There are also two photos of him at death. For more information on this holy emperor, take a look at this website which promotes the cause of canonization of him - https://www.emperorcharles.org/ For information on Emperor Karl I's wife Empress Zita, please go to this website: Canadian Association for the Beatification of Empress Zita - http://www.beatification-imperatrice-zita.org/pages/english/home/contact.html The Emperor Charles.org site honored me with posting my sketch of Blessed Emperor Karl I on their website - https://www.emperorcharles.org/news/2022/4/18/new-artwork-of-blessed-karl-commemorates-centenary-year
