EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as Her Majesty the Queen visits the Tomb of Napoleon I in the Invalides, Paris, in 1855. The colour lithograph by Edgar Melville Ward beautifully depicts this historic event, showcasing the grandeur and elegance of both royalty and historical architecture. Queen Victoria's visit to Napoleon Bonaparte's final resting place is a symbol of respect for one of Europe's most iconic figures. Surrounded by her entourage including Berthier, Lannes, Massena, Murat, Keller Mann, Ney, Davovst and Sovlt; Her Majesty pays homage to the legendary emperor who left an indelible mark on French history. The image transports us back to that momentous day when royal and imperial legacies converged. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power and influence that these two figures held over their respective nations. The attention to detail in this lithograph is remarkable - from Queen Victoria's regal attire to the intricate design of Napoleon's tomb itself. This artwork was originally published in The Graphic on June 20th, 1887; it continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance and artistic beauty. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded not only of the rich tapestry of European history but also of how art can immortalize important moments for generations to come.
