Count Mailáth György a
Knight of the Golden Fleece was Lord Chief Justice, the leader/speaker
of the Upper House, and a member of the governing body of the
Hungarian Academy of Science.
He inherited his father's and grandfather's intellect and strong, stable personality. By 1839, in his 21st. year he was a parliamentary representative of Baranya county.
After this he was appointed as the first Vice Lord Lieutenant of Baranya county until 1843-44 when he became the parliamentary representative of Baranya county once more. In 1847 he was elected Lord Lieutenant of that county.
His wife, Baroness Stefánia Hilleprand-Prandau, wore this ornate dress in 1867 at the coronation of the Austrian Emperor Franz Josef. (The Hungarian National Museum)
