NAPOLEON BONAPARTE UNIFORM RELIC
NAPOLEON BONAPARTE (1769 - 1821) The 'Little Corporal' whose brilliance in the field of battle and as Emperor of France has made him perhaps the most important figure of post-Renaissance Europe. Very rare souvenir of gold fringe taken from the uniform of Napoleon by a German military officer while it was on display at the Palace of Fontainebleau in France from 1870-1891. A handwritten note in German accompanying the fringe explains these facts. Scattered toning on the note and background, fitted in a 6.5 in. x 5 in. frame, else fine condition. Prussian forces took Paris on January 28, 1781.
