EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the grandeur and significance of "The wedding of Napoleon III and Eugenia Maria de Montijo de Guzman". Taking place on January 30,1853, at the majestic Cathedral of Our Lady in Paris, this historical event marked the union between two powerful nations - France and Spain. Intricately detailed by an anonymous artist from the 19th century, this print showcases a momentous occasion filled with regal splendor. The radiant bride, Princess Eugenia Maria de Montijo de Guzman, adorned in exquisite jewels symbolizing her Spanish heritage, stands beside her groom - Napoleon III. As they exchange vows before God's altar, their love becomes intertwined with political alliances that would shape European history. The image highlights not only the beauty of the couple but also their status as influential figures. Napoleon III was a statesman who held immense power as Emperor of France while Eugenia became Empress Consort. Their marriage united two great empires under one crown. Preserved within Musee Carnavalet in Paris today, this engraving serves as a testament to an era defined by opulence and diplomacy. It allows us to glimpse into a time when royalty transcended borders and marriages were strategic maneuvers for maintaining peace or gaining advantage. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured every intricate detail through her lens. Through her work on this out-of-copyright piece, she brings history alive once more for all to appreciate its significance beyond commercial use.
