EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the visit of Prince Napoleon to the Great Eastern at Southampton on October 18th, 1859. The illustration, taken from Le Monde Illustre and engraved by the French School in the 19th century, provides a glimpse into this royal encounter. Prince Napoleon, also known as Plon-Plon, was a cousin of Emperor Napoleon III. After arriving from France on the steamer Dauphin, he embarked on a three-hour tour of the magnificent ship. The Great Eastern was an impressive ocean liner and steamship that symbolized Victorian engineering prowess. In this image, we witness Prince Napoleon inspecting every detail of the vessel with great interest. His presence adds an air of grandeur to this historic occasion. As he explores various sections of the ship - perhaps its luxurious cabins or state-of-the-art engine room - one can only imagine his awe and admiration for such technological marvels. This photograph not only showcases Prince Napoleon's visit but also highlights society's fascination with steamships during that era. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and progress in maritime transportation. Preserved within private collections today, this remarkable engraving allows us to step back in time and appreciate both the opulence of Victorian-era travel and the significance of royal visits during that period.
