PRINCE LOUIS NAPOLEON.
11.P.Lean, Haymarket.
Incomparably the best portrait of the Prince Louis
Napoleon is the one recently published by Mr.
M‘Lean, of the Haymarket. Painted by Sir William
Charles Ross, R.A., it has been engraved in one of
the highest styles of art by M. F. Joubert. Last
season the original miniature was exhibited in the
Royal Academy. During the time of its production
the artist bad the honour of obtaining several sittings
in the Palace of the Elysee, and admirably has he
availed himself of the opportunity, in giving to the
world the most correct likeness yet painted of the
illustrious personage represented. The p3rtrait is at
full length. The Prince is standing. His costume is the
uniform of a general in the French arm ; and the va-
rious accessories introduced in the picture are cleverly
arranged and ingeniously pourtrayed. Under any cir-
cumstances a life-iike representation of Louis Napoleon
—or, as he is now officially designated, Son Altesse
Imperiale Monseigneur le Prince President de la
Republique Franciise—could not fail to be interest-
ing. As the representative of the house of Bona-
parte, as the heir to the glory of Napoleon, as the son
of King Louis by Queen Hortense, and as the
grandson of the Empress Josephine—he must have
commanded some degree of attention bad he still re-
mained in the privacy of his long exile from his
fatherland. Besides these adventitious claims upon
public notice, however, the Prince Louis Napoleon
possesses others of a personal and honourable charac-
ter. His romantic adventures, his extraordinary
vicissitudes, and, above all, his surprising elevation to
supreme power in the very land where he had con-
tinued for six years a state prisoner in the fortress of
Hams—secure to him a place in history, while they
extort, in some manner at least, the sympathies of his
contemporaries. Thrice elected by his fellow-coun-
try, men—flrs'ly, when called from banishment
to the National Assembly by six different consti-
tuencies, secondly, when nominated President for four
years by six millions of free citizens, and thirdly,
when chosen for the same office for ten years addi-
tional by nearly eight millions of votes (votes ren-
dered doubly important by being the fruits of the
ballot and of universal suffrage)—his authority has
been legitimately derived from the population. The
responsibility of his august position be appears, more-
over, to have in a great measure recognised and ap-
preciated—accepting as the foundations of his Go-
vernment (as he himself has recently intimated).—
" the people the source of all power, the army the
source of all force, and religion the source of all
justice." Whatever may be the opinion entertained
in reference to some of his past acts—it must be ad-
mitted that be has secured to France the advantages
of a strong and energetic administration. Under his
influence the ties of family have been reunited, the
rights of property have been defended, while
'he entire fabric of society has beengra-
dually but, for that very reason, perhaps,
only the more thoroughly reorganized. 'As an author
he had already obtained considerable distinction by
iris work on the " Extinction of Pauperism," by his
various writings explanatory of .Napoleoniani ro,"
and especially by that literary masterpiece which has
been accepted as a text book in the English as well
as in the French military colleges, the "History of
Artillery," a subject peculiarly appropriate to have
been selected by a Bonaparte. As a statesman and
an administrator be has now an opportunity of com-
manding the admiration by securing the gratitude of
posterity. Future events will more clearly demonstrate
whether his capacities are fully equal to the occasion
now afforded for their development. Under every
consideration, however, the splendid engraving here
issued from the establishment of Mr. M‘Lean, of the
Haymarket, will be regarded with curiosity by all
parties alike, as that of one of the most powerful and
remarkable among the European potentates.
