!!! ATTENTION !!!

The image is not image of Constance. It's a portrait of her younger sister, Maria Magdalena. Her real image is under this address: http://img.interia.pl/encyklopedia/nimg/konstan1.jpg and http://www.zrodlo.krakow.pl/Archiwum/2005/03/07.jpg If some can change this mistake I would be very grateful. I'm a historian on Polish University, but I'm not good at changing something in the Internet (mostly images). Thank You very much.
