Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Princess Aline" by Richard Harding Davis is a novelette published in 1895. A young, wealthy American artist becomes captivated by a photograph of a European princess and embarks on a transatlantic voyage to meet her. Accompanied by companions encountered during his journey, he pursues this romantic obsession across Europe. The story blends travel narrative with whimsical romance, exploring the boundaries between social classes and the possibilities—or impossibilities—of love between a commoner and royalty. Davis's tale became the fifth-best selling novel in America that year.
