Product Description
The L’Aigle 1:200 scale card model kit from Orel Publishing (No. 303) recreates the elegant French imperial yacht built in 1859 for Emperor Napoleon III. Designed by Dupuis de Loma and constructed in Cherbourg, L’Aigle served as a prestigious vessel for diplomatic and ceremonial voyages, including historic journeys to Algeria and Egypt for the opening of the Suez Canal.
