Catalogue Note
Louis-Philippe, premier Comte de Paris (1838-1894), était le fils aîné de Ferdinand duc d'Orléans et de la princesse Hélène de Mecklembourg-Schwerin. A la mort de son père en 1842, il devint l'héritier du trône. En 1850, à la mort du roi Louis-Philippe, il devint chef de la Maison d'Orléans. En 1883, à la mort du comte de Chambord, dernier survivant de la branche aînée des Bourbon, il devint chef de la Maison de France. Sa fille Isabelle épousa le duc de Guise, fils du duc de Chartres, et donna naissance au deuxième Comte de Paris (1908-1999).
