"Cornelia Szekely, 1st Preis"
In 1882 Cornelia won a beauty contest. She was the 20 year
old
daughter
of a functionary
in the employment of the State and won a diamond bracelet.
Newspaper article about the contest:
A Champion Beauty. The most beautiful woman in the world, or "champion beauty", has just
been
found at Pesth,
thanks to the municipality, which, instead of concerning itself with corporation
dinners,
main-drains, and lighting,
has instituted an international beauty tournament. Out of 150
candidates
(the
number
must surely be a telegraphic mistake) only
ten obtained prizes,
and the
first
prize,
a diamond
bracelet, was taken by Cornelia Szekely, aged 20. This damsel is a brunette,
with
brilliant
eyes, whose
figure, supple as a twining creeper, recalls the type of ancient Greek
statues.
Her photographs will not
be
ready for some days
owing to a little accident which happens
even to
English ladies, her dress not
having come home from the milliner, but it will be
soon sent to
every
illustrated
paper in the world, and
we
shall have an opportunity of judging. Meanwhile, before it
arrives,
no
doubt numerous challenges will be hurled to Cornelia from Europe, Asia, Africa, and
America, and
the
railway companies to Pesth
may be expected to declare vast dividends,
reaped
from
the transit of
wagon-loads of discontented
beauties arriving from all parts of the world.
