EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history - the investiture ceremony of King Louis Philippe at Windsor Castle. The image showcases a traditional honor being bestowed upon the French monarch as he enters the Chapter-room. In this solemn chamber, Queen Victoria stands alongside her Knights Companions to receive King Louis Philippe. Placed in a grand chair on Her Majesty's right hand, he is welcomed into the Most Noble Order with great reverence. The scene exudes regality and elegance. The intricate interior decoration adds to the splendor of this historic event. Chandeliers illuminate every corner, casting a soft glow over those gathered for this auspicious occasion. The fortifications surrounding them symbolize strength and power, reflecting both nations' rich histories.
