The British photographer Rip Hopkins, through chance encounters in the land of the nobility, delivers a striking trophy cabinet of 96 portraits; the Belgian historian Olivier de Trazegnies surveys the paradoxes of the Belgian aristocracy; and the French writer Pauline de La Boulaye examines the images of this aristocracy the way a lepidopterist pins a butterfly, with the same patient, slightly clinical attention.
