EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from the Universal Images Group (UIG) showcases Henri, Duc de Bordeaux (1820-1883), a significant figure in French royalty. As the posthumous son of Charles Ferdinand, Duc de Berry and grandson of Charles X of France, Henri was destined to inherit the throne as Bourbon heir and styled himself as Henri V. Also known as the Comte de Chambord, his regal presence is beautifully captured in this print dating back to around 1830. The lithograph exudes an air of elegance and nobility that befits a prince. Henri's refined features are accentuated by intricate details meticulously etched onto paper. His piercing gaze reflects both strength and vulnerability, hinting at the weight he carried on his shoulders as a potential ruler during turbulent times in French history. This image serves not only as a visual representation but also encapsulates an era marked by political upheaval and shifting power dynamics within European monarchies. It offers us a glimpse into the life of a young man who held immense promise but ultimately faced challenges that prevented him from ascending to the throne. As we admire this historical artifact, let us remember Henri's legacy - one that symbolizes resilience amidst adversity and reminds us of how even those born into privilege can face insurmountable obstacles on their path to greatness.
