Légende
The Meeting of His Royal Highness Prince Albert and the Emperor of the French, at Boulogne, 1854. Napoleon Bonaparte III welcomes Prince Albert to France. 'Prince Albert, recognising the Emperor, took off his hat and saluted his Majesty, who most gracefully returned the compliment...As soon as the gangway was made, his Royal Highness stepped hastily ashore, the Emperor advancing to the foot of the gangway to meet him. A most cordial shake of the hand was exchanged...The Prince was looking remarkably well, and wore the uniform of a Field Marshal...The Royal yacht was an object of vast interest and admiration...immediately after the Prince had landed, a very general rush was made by ladies and others to get on board. A company of tars, however, manfully resisted the attempt to board the Royal craft, and...forced the invaders to beat a retreat'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
