EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, created by Edmund Morin in the 19th century, captures a significant moment in history - the visit of Napoleon III and Empress Eugenie to Guildhall in London, 1855. The artist skillfully portrays the grandeur of this royal event, showcasing the emperor addressing an enthralled audience within the magnificent hall. Napoleon III stands tall and regal at a podium, delivering his address with confidence and charisma.

To the right of this illustrious couple stand guards holding musical instruments within a beautifully adorned box. Their presence adds an air of solemnity and importance to this historic occasion. The scene is set amidst stunning architecture that characterizes Guildhall's splendor. The building itself serves as a testament to London's rich history and cultural significance during that time period. Morin's lithograph expertly captures every detail - from the vibrant colors that bring life to each figure present, to the intricate interior design elements that enhance its authenticity. This print offers viewers an opportunity to glimpse into a remarkable moment in European history when two influential figures visited England. It immortalizes not only Napoleon III but also Empress Eugenie who played an essential role by his side throughout his reign as Emperor of France.
