thumb thumb Elisabeth of Lorraine (1574–1635), also ''Elisabeth Renata of Lorraine'', was a Duchess and an Electress consort of Bavaria. She was a daughter of Charles III, Duke of Lorraine in his marriage to Claude of Valois. On 9 February 1595, in Nancy, she married her cousin Maximilian I, Elector of Bavaria. Their marriage was childless due to Elisabeth's sterility, which was a cause of suffering. Her relationship to her spouse was, however, otherwise described as good and harmonious.〔http://www.ingolstadt.de/stadtmuseum/scheuerer/ausstell/maximi07.htm〕 Elisabeth is described as a very devout Catholic, who spent a lot of her time to her religious duties, and became known for her ascetic life style.〔http://www.ingolstadt.de/stadtmuseum/scheuerer/ausstell/maximi07.htm〕 As newly married, she was seen as vivid and jolly, but she became more melancholic and depressive by age.〔http://www.ingolstadt.de/stadtmuseum/scheuerer/ausstell/maximi07.htm〕 Maximilian gave no political influence or tasks to Elisabeth what so ever, but she spent a great deal of effort on charity.〔http://www.ingolstadt.de/stadtmuseum/scheuerer/ausstell/maximi07.htm〕 She died after a long period of illness. Maximilian married again only a few months after her death. ==Ancestry== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elisabeth of Lorraine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
