Original – Color-lithographed poster of the grounds of the 1900 Exposition universelle in Paris. The view overlooks the Seine, the Grand Palais, the exhibition buildings leading to Les Invalides, the Eiffel Tower, and the exhibition buildings constructed around it. Some of the more fantastical buildings constructed for the Exposition are shown, such as the Globe Céleste. In the foreground are world leaders, including William McKinley and monarchs, such as Queen Victoria, and her son (Edward VII, upon her death), Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria-Hungary, Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra of Russia, and Menelik II, Emperor of Ethiopiaa
