(1755 - 1836) 'Anthony the Kind', King of Saxony, ruling from 1827 to 1836 during the period when Saxony became a Constitutional monarchy and obtained a bi-cameral legislature. Black-bordered manuscript D.S. 'Antonius', 1p. legal folio, Pillnitz, 1832, in Latin. Anthony sadly announces the death of his daughter-in-law, Archduchess Marie Caroline of Austria (1801-1832), the wife of his son Frederick Augustus, Crown Prince of Saxony, to her close relative, Ferdinand II, King of Two Sicillies. The marriage was childless and unhappy. Marie Caroline was sweet and pleasant, but she suffered from epilepsy and her attacks were so frequent that she was barely able to fulfill her duties as Crown Princess; they also seriously affected her marital relationship. The long-suffering princess died from an epileptic attack on 22 May 1832 at Pillnitz Castle. Heavily water-stained, thought not affecting signature nor the easy legibility of the document. With transmittal envelope.
