Gabriela von Habsburg, (born 14 October 1956), also known as Archduchess Gabriela of Austria, is the granddaughter of Charles I, the last Emperor of Austria. She is also a prolific abstract sculptor, working mainly in stainless steel as well as stone-printed lithography. She was the Ambassador of Georgia to Germany from 2009〔(Parliament Approves New Ambassador to Germany ). ''Civil Georgia''. November 6, 2009〕 to 2013.〔(Saakashvili Dismisses Ambassadors FM Wanted to be Replaced ). ''Civil Georgia''. January 15, 2013〕 ==Upbringing and education== Gabriela von Habsburg was born in Luxembourg, the fourth child of Otto von Habsburg, the erstwhile crown prince of Austria, and his wife, Princess Regina of Saxe-Meiningen. She was baptised with the names ''Gabriela Maria Charlotte Felicitas Elisabeth Antonia''. According to her birth certificate, her last name is "of Austria-Hungary" (''von Österreich-Ungarn'').〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gabriela von Habsburg: "Riesenvorteil, heute zu leben" )〕 She was raised at her parents' home in exile, Villa Austria, in Pöcking, Bavaria. As a result of the Habsburgs' banishment from Austria, she feels that she grew up deprived of any sense of pride of country, evolving instead a self-concept as a "European".〔Gelber, David, Financial Times, ''(The art of diplomacy )'', 29 April 2011, access date 21 May 2011〕 She believes that her dynasty's role in history shaped her upbringing, "I grew up in a family where we never spoke about anything at mealtimes except politics," she recalls.〔 After graduating in 1976, Gabriela von Habsburg studied philosophy for two years at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. From 1978 to 1982, she studied art at the Munich Academy of Arts with Robert Jacobsen and Eduardo Paolozzi. She does not use her ancestral titles as a member of the House of Habsburg: "Princess Imperial and Archduchess of Austria, Princess Royal of Hungary and Bohemia", with the style of ''Imperial and Royal Highness''."〔〔 The use of such titles is illegal in Hungary and Austria.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIS - Gesamte Rechtsvorschrift für Habsburgergesetz - Bundesrecht konsolidiert, Fassung vom 09.08.2015 )〕 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「Gabriela von Habsburg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
