Notes

Assumed miniature print date based on image; a web search identifies the artist as Franz Xaver Winterhalter (1805 - 1873), a German painter and lithographer with conflicting dates for a similar painting of 1855 and 1861. No original or printed text on back of photograph. The identity of Empress Eugenie was also handwritten below the print in the album.
