« Le Second Empire apparaît […] comme une sorte d'âge d'or de la candidature officielle, et comme une période au cours de laquelle l'ampleur des moyens matériels et humains ». Dans le département des Alpes-Maritimes, comment de telles pratiques vont-elles s'implanter ? Comment se réalise cette adaptation aux normes politiques françaises et impériales présentées comme l'un des avantages de l'annexion ?

Poisoning at Nice under the Restoration, judicial investigations and toxicological experts' reports. – Poisoning may be a fairly well-known crime in legal history, but the judgements of the Senate in Nice (at the time of the Restoration in the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia) shed some new light on some of its issues. The court worked according to principles of organisation, a legal system and a procedure which had all been inherited from the Ancien Régime and re-established under the Restoration, and which allowed it to conduct core criminal investigations. These investigations aimed at finding out the intention of the criminal and the means used in committing the crime. They relied, in spite of the limitations of scientific knowledge, on toxicological expertise, which became an essential stage in prosecuting cases of poisoning.

Underlining the special strength of images among representations of power is not a new approach on an historical point of vew. However, each period in political history shows distinctive features. Looking for the meaning of the royal power in the middle age is hence legitimate. At that time, indeed, images were already a pedagogic tool serving religion as well as the representations of political power.
As for the the royal authority, it forms a very language expressing values and is the support of a discourse. Without any doubt, many of these images tend to allow the authority to be recognized and approved. Their function is then clearly to legitimate, and to create a consensus around the royal institution. Hence there are moments in medieval history, when the royal power try to arouse a consensus through images which could be taken for a work of propaganda. But, generally speaking, it is a matter of expressing the Monarch’s greatness, the magnificence of whom his people are supposed to believe. More than persuasion, it is a matter of exhibiting the power through images of splendor. Their real function is also to show the way the king is showing himself and tend to increase his visibility. The iconographic strategy consists then of directing the power and glorifying the splendor of the king. The images show him in Majesty as well as in action. The latter was made feasible, legitimate and necessary by his very power.
