Prince Akihito, later Emperor of Japan. Nice train station 1953.
Prince Akihito, the future Emperor of Japan, looks towards the camera from within an ornate train car at the Nice station in 1953. Dressed formally in a suit and tie, he is framed by heavy curtains and the car’s elaborate interior, which features a coffered ceiling with intricate patterns. The candid, black and white photograph captures the moment through a series of partitions, with companions visible to his left and right.
