EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in history - the grand lunch hosted by Louis-Philippe for Queen Victoria in the enchanting Forest of Eu on September 6th, 1843. Painted with meticulous detail by Karl Girardet, this oil on canvas artwork transports us back to that splendid day. In this particular detail of the painting, we see Queen Victoria seated gracefully under a parasol, her regal presence shining through. Beside her sits King Louis-Philippe of France, his expression reflecting both warmth and admiration for his esteemed guest. The lush greenery of the forest surrounds them as they indulge in an al fresco meal fit for royalty. This State Visit was not merely a luncheon; it was an extraordinary display of hospitality and entertainment. The banquet table is adorned with sumptuous delicacies, while guests from near and far revel in this majestic setting. Monarchs and rulers gather together to celebrate friendship and diplomacy amidst nature's splendor. The Chateau de Versailles serves as the backdrop to this remarkable event, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to an already magnificent scene. As we gaze upon this image captured by Girardet's brushstrokes, we are transported into a world where monarchs dine beneath towering trees and create lasting memories. This print is more than just art; it is a testament to historical moments that shaped nations and forged alliances. It invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also the significance behind every stroke
