The late Count Karolyi, formerly Austrian Minister in London, 1890. Engraving from a photograph by M. Valéry, 164, Regent-street. 'Towards the end of the year was announced the death of Count Aloys Karolyi, late Austro-Hungarian Ambassador in London. It occurred suddenly while he was out shooting at his country seat near Presburg, in Hungary. This nobleman, who was sixty-four years of age, belonged to one of the oldest and wealthiest Hungarian families. In 1859 he was appointed Austrian Minister to the Prussian Court. At the Berlin Congress Count Karolyi, at the time Ambassador to Germany, acted with Count Julius Andrassy as Austro-Hungarian plenipotentiary. He succeeded Count Beust in 1878 as Ambassador in London, which post he resigned last year on account of ill-health. He was married in 1869 to Countess Francesca Erdödy, and leaves three children'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
