Prince Akihito, later Emperor of Japan. Nice train station 1953.
In a formal, wood-paneled reception room at the Nice train station in 1953, Prince Akihito, the future Emperor of Japan, sits on an upholstered settee. Dressed in a light-colored suit and two-tone shoes, he raises a hand thoughtfully to his chin, a fedora resting beside him. Other men in suits, part of an official welcoming party, gather on the polished parquet floor. On the wall hangs a large painting with a plaque that reads "DE COMBLOUX".
