Comment: Interesting document illustrating Napoleon III's first visit to Biarritz since construction of the Villa Eugénie, ordered three years earlier, began. In the original edition of Le Monde illustré, it is added that the Emperor comes directly from the Camp de Châlons, where the 3rd military parade of the imperial army was held before, among others, Charles XV of Sweden, William Smith O'Brien of Ireland and Mac Mahon. The journey will last 6 days.
