Prince Akihito, later Emperor of Japan. Nice train station 1953.
Prince Akihito, the future Emperor of Japan, stands centrally among three companions in an elegantly appointed room at the Nice train station in 1953. Dressed in a pinstriped suit, the young prince and the other formally dressed men gaze upwards and to the right. Their attention is directed towards an unseen artwork, identified by a plaque on the wood-paneled wall that reads "LE MONT BLANC, VU DE COMBLOUX"—a view of the famous mountain from Combloux.
