EDITORS COMMENTS
King Oscar II of Sweden, accompanied by a group of dignitaries and officials, graces the picturesque Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy, France with his royal presence in 1902. This print captures the historic moment when King Oscar II embarked on a visit to this iconic medieval abbey perched atop a rocky island. The image showcases the grandeur of both the monarch and the architectural marvel that is Mont Saint-Michel. The towering spires and intricate stonework of this centuries-old structure provide a stunning backdrop as King Oscar II stands tall, exuding regal elegance. His presence is further accentuated by the Swedish flag fluttering proudly beside him against the clear blue sky. This photograph not only immortalizes an important royal visit but also serves as a testament to the strong cultural ties between Sweden and France during that era. It symbolizes diplomacy, friendship, and mutual admiration between nations. Accompanying this historical snapshot is an intriguing map depicting Mount Pelee's eruption in Martinique from Le Petit Journal dated May 25th, 1902. This juxtaposition highlights how art media can capture diverse events unfolding simultaneously across different corners of our world. Preserved for over a century, this remarkable print allows us to delve into history's tapestry while appreciating its artistic beauty.
