EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic journey of Napoleon III (1808-1873) and Eugenie de Montijo (1826-1920) to Rouen in 1857. The imperial couple can be seen visiting a linen spinning called "The Lightning" in this picturesque street scene. Rouen, located in Seine Maritime (76), was the chosen destination for this momentous visit. The engraving, created by Mr. Massot and featured in "Le Monde Illustre" on August 29th, 1857, beautifully depicts the grandeur of this occasion. The image showcases the couple's fascination with the flax industry as they explore the bustling factory. Napoleon III and Eugenie de Montijo were not only captivated by each other's presence but also by the thriving industrial landscape of Normandy. This enchanting portrayal highlights their shared interest in promoting economic growth and development within France. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured by Stefano Bianchetti, you are transported back to a time when kings and queens roamed these streets. It serves as a reminder of how influential figures like Napoleon III shaped nations through their visits and support for local industries. Let this print serve as an inspiration to embrace our own journeys, both personal and professional, just as Napoleon III and Eugenie de Montijo did during their visit to Rouen over a century ago.
