Description
PRINCE PHILIPPE OF ORLÉANS, Count of Paris (1838-1894). Imperial photograph signed (“Philippe Comte de Paris”). New York: Pach Brothers, ca. 1885. Albumen photo on original studio mount, signed at lower corner of mount, overall 324 x 191 mm, spotting to image, old mount transferred on verso. Prince Philippe became the Prince Royal, heir apparent to the throne, when his father, Prince Ferdinand-Philippe, Duc d’Orléans, died in a carriage accident in 1842. Prince Philippe would soon be exiled after the French Second Republic was proclaimed. He would later move to the United States to join the American Civil War as a Union officer, along with his younger brother, Prince Robert, Duke of Chartres, becoming an assistant adjutant general with the rank of captain on 24 September 1861. He distinguished himself after serving on the staff of the commander of the Army of Potomac, Major General George B. McClellan, for nearly a year.
