EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph captures the essence of Henri Charles Ferdinand Marie Dieudonne de France, Duc de Bordeaux, Comte de Chambord. As the last heir of the eldest Bourbon branch and claimant to the throne of France, he exudes an air of regality and nobility. Rendered by Joseph Felon with meticulous detail, this posthumous portrait showcases Henri's youthful features and dignified countenance. The artist skillfully emphasizes his subject's noble lineage through intricate epaulettes adorning his uniform. Henri de Bourbon was born in 1820 as the son of Charles-Ferdinand de France, Duc de Berry, and Marie-Caroline de Bourbon-Sicile. He was also a grandson of King Charles X. This lithograph serves as a testament to his status as a pretendant legitimiste – one who upheld traditionalist values and sought to restore monarchy in France. Drawing from life itself, Felon expertly captures Henri's likeness while infusing it with an aura that speaks volumes about his royal heritage. The print is housed at Musee Carnavalet in Paris, where it stands as a reminder of French history and its enduring fascination with monarchies. This photograph print not only immortalizes Henri Charles Ferdinand Marie Dieudonne but also offers us a glimpse into an era marked by political intrigue and dynastic aspirations. It serves as both a historical artifact and an exquisite work of art that continues to captivate viewers today.
