EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Prince Napoléon Joseph-Charles-Paul Bonaparte, also known as Plon-Plon, the claimant to the French throne as the son of Napoléon Bonaparte's youngest brother, Jerome, is depicted with his sons, Victor and Louis. The image, taken in 1891, captures a moment of familial warmth and historical significance. Prince Napoléon, born in 1856, was the eldest son of Jerome Bonaparte, the King of Westphalia from 1807 to 1813, and his second wife, Catherine of Württemberg. Despite his royal lineage, Napoléon Joseph-Charles-Paul faced numerous challenges to his claim to the French throne. His uncle, Napoléon I, abdicated in 1814, and the Bourbon monarchy was restored. However, Napoléon III, who ruled France from 1852 to 1870, was of Bonaparte descent through his mother, Hortense de Beauharnais. Napoléon III's reign saw a resurgence of Bonaparte sympathies, and some believed that Napoléon Joseph-Charles-Paul could potentially seize the throne. In this photograph, taken during the twilight years of the 19th century, Napoléon Joseph-Charles-Paul is seen with his sons, Victor and Louis. Victor, born in 1862, would go on to become the Duke of Morny and a French statesman, while Louis, born in 1864, would become a military officer. The three men, dressed in formal attire, exude an air of regality and determination, reflecting their royal lineage and their aspirations. The photograph, taken in 1891, offers a glimpse into the lives of the Bonaparte claimants to the French throne and their efforts to maintain their family's legacy in the face of political and historical challenges. The image is a poignant reminder of the complex and intriguing history of the Bonaparte dynasty and their continued claims to the French throne.
