I have an oxymoron for you. Here is some new old news or would you say old new news? Anyway, I had no idea that Liechtenstein had the largest royal family in Europe.

I guess you would really have to look at the math. There are over 100 princes and princess currently holding the title of His/Her Serene Highness of Liechtenstein.

I believe there is no rule for who is a HSH Prince(ss) and who isn't, as long as it is in the male line.

They are all descending from Fürst Franz Joseph I. See link for the Genelogy:
Liechtenstein

There is no limit for how many Generations the Title Prince/Princess of Liechtenstein can pass in the male line and as the mostly have/had many children, there are a lot of lines now.

Max looks so handsome with the slightly longer hair. I wonder if Angela got a nice pearl present?

Thanks for this article Kerry.
Apart from the art, the story contains a clue which explains the wherewithall for restoration of the Vienna palaces and the acquisition of artworks:

Operating under the slogan "Invest like the Prince", LGT now manages assets of SwFr 100bn ($84bn) (profits for the first half of this year were SwFr136m).

From an online currency conversion calculator, half-year profit of 136 million Swiss francs =
Australian $148,500,000
Euro €86,450,000
Stg £68,340,000
US $136,500,000

There would appear to be no cashflow problem in the Liechtenstein household budget.
