About photographs
Alfonso XIII
Here is Alfonso XIII in the Hungarian General uniform :
(of course he's the one to the right !)
Now I must admit to still being puzzled by that photo ; though wearing a General Uniform, it looks like he's only ranked a Colonel.
And i've seen the same photo titled "König Alfons als Oberstinhaber".
It's been argued that the photo is not clear, but...
Was he ever a KuK General, or could that be a licence for a Royaly to wear a glorious uniform ?
(by the way he was Colonel-in-Chief of an Infantry regiment)
Would you happen to have any picture of him in "his Husares de Pavia" uniform ?
Spanish Hussars had great style !
