EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in French history - Napoleon III's failed coup attempt against Louis-Philippe at Strasbourg in October 1836. The image depicts the young Napoleon, counting on popular support for the Napoleonic idea, only to be met with disappointment as his plans fail to materialize.
The tension and drama of this historical event are palpable in the photograph, as Napoleon II attempts to seize power and make a mark on France's turbulent political landscape. However, despite his efforts and aspirations, he ultimately falls short of achieving his goal.
The significance of this moment in French history cannot be overstated, as it marked a turning point in the country's trajectory and set the stage for future events that would shape its destiny. The legacy of Napoleon III's failed coup attempt reverberates through the annals of time, serving as a cautionary tale about the perils of ambition and overestimating one's own popularity.

This print serves as a powerful reminder of the fragility of power and the unpredictable nature of historical events.
