EDITORS COMMENTS
This front cover illustration from Le Petit Journal, dated 15th November 1896, showcases the elegant and regal presence of Queen Amelie of Portugal. The coloured engraving, created by Fortune Louis Meaulle, perfectly captures her grace and beauty. Queen Amelie (1865-1951), born Amelie d'Orleans, was the daughter of Philippe d'Orleans, comte de Paris and Princesse Marie Isabelle d'Orleans. She married Prince Carlos of Portugal on 22nd May 1886 and became the beloved queen consort of Portugal. In this portrait, Queen Amelie is adorned with a stunning sapphire necklace that accentuates her royal status. Her oval-shaped face exudes confidence and poise as she gazes into the distance. The intricate details in Meaulle's artwork bring out every nuance of her features. As a French princess who became Portuguese royalty, Queen Amelie symbolizes the connection between France and Portugal during that era. This image serves as a reminder of their historical alliance. Preserved in a private collection today, this print offers us a glimpse into an important moment in European history. It reminds us not only of Queen Amelie's significant role but also highlights the exquisite artistry employed by Meaulle to immortalize her beauty for generations to come.
