Description:
In the pages of this book you will discover a hundred engravings of the second half of the nineteenth century and all in relation to the Belgian dynasty, which corresponds to the reigns of Leopold I (1831-1865) and Leopold II (1865-1909). All these engravings, acquired about 15 years ago for the oldest, and only a few months ago to the most recent, were scanned with care to be reproduced in this book. They are either portraits of members of the royal family, or events or places related to the royal family. You will also discover books and illustrated magazines of the nineteenth century and how the images were reproduced at that time through the engraving and lithography methods.
