The Prince Imperial of France, 1858. Creator: Unknown
The Prince Imperial of France, 1858. The Portrait which we now present is from a photograph taken by Messrs. Miall (Freres). The portrait has been but recently taken, at the Tuileries, representing the Prince on a toy horse. The Imperial Prince, who, it will be remembered, was enrolled in the 1st Regiment of Grenadier Guards a few days after his birth, and who has ever since drawn the pay of a private soldier, has just been promoted to the rank of corporal. The following is the text of the order for his elevation: "His Imperial Highness the Prince Imperial Napoleon Louis-Eugene-Jean-Joseph, matriculated No. 3463, is appointed to be a corporal in the 1st battalion, 1st company, in which there is a vacancy by reason of the transfer of Corporal Prugnot to the 3rd battalion of the 4th company".
