engraving on wood from 1855 on Queen Victoria's visit to France
engraving on wood published in an English newspaper on September 8, 1855 and entitled: Departure of her majesty from Paris - The imperial and royal procession in the place Vendôme. In 1855, Queen Victoria of England made a historic visit to France, a landmark event in Franco-British relations. This visit, which took place from August 18 to 27, aimed to consolidate the alliance between France and the United Kingdom, in the midst of the Crimean War against Russia. The warm welcome given to Queen Victoria by Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie symbolized a period of relaxation and cooperation after centuries of rivalry. This meeting was also an opportunity for Victoria to visit the Universal Exhibition of 1855 in Paris, a major cultural and industrial event. Queen Victoria's visit thus helped to strengthen diplomatic ties and promote peace between the two great European powers of the time.
