A cropped version of this photo ran in The Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.), July 30, 1916 with the caption "KING ALPHONSO, of Spain is one of the European monarchs who can still laugh. Not many of his fellow-rulers can now attain a similar state of mind. " oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1916-07-30/ed-1/se...

Thanks swanq and Art Siegel. We'll add his name and change the upper date range to 1916.

Here is link to Wikipedia bio of then king of Spain, Alfonso XIII, sure looks to be the same guy. (But who is "Seade Moulin", maybe refers to the two gentlemen on the left)? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfonso_XIII_of_Spain

Looks like it might say "Jean De Moulin," but I can't find anything under that name, either.

Poincaré is probably en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_Poincar%c3%a9

In May 1913, Alfonso visited President Poincaré of France in Paris. See NYT of May 8, 1913: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9D07E5D91F3AE633A... "PARIS, May 7. -- King Alfonso of Spain arrived in Paris this morning on a three days' visit to President Poincare. He and Count Romanones, the Spanish Premier, drove from the station with the President in a four-horse carriage, escorted by cuirassiers." This could certainly be in Paris and I think the soldiers could be cuirassiers.

Swanq: Thanks! This certainly looks probable. We'll fix the date and title in the source data and reload the description

See www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/3378612889/ This will be during the same May 1913 visit of the King of Spain to Paris.

swanq: Thanks. We'll fix the date and add the additional information to the source data and reload the description!
