#Josephine Bonaparte

[pobodleru]

A couple of days ago I met a beautiful woman in the Moscow metro. She was holding a Starbucks cup in her hands, but inside there was not coffee, but earth and a few petals in it.

This looks absolutely like Josephine in modern AU. I’m sure she would also steal a sprout of a plant she liked from the cafe for her garden.

Without his Josephine, without the assurance of her love, what is left him upon earth?

I found this autochrome photo (very early colour photography) from the early 1900s-1910s of a woman in a dress that appears to be inspired by Empress Josephine’s coronation gown! I am so in shock because this genuinely looks like a photo of Josephine.

#I love autochrome photos so much #they look so dreamy #and there’s something about this one in particular that I adore #empress josephine #josephine bonaparte #josephine de beauharnais #napoleon #napoleonic era #history #fashion history #autochrome

Something that I will never forget is the fact that when Napoleon was in Russia, he wrote a letter to Josephinse, his WIFE, where he basically told her that he was in love with Alexander, the Tsar of Russia. (Plus a little comic I made of the scenario.)

"She read voraciously -- especially biographies -- Josephine Bonaparte, Lady Emma Hamilton, Marie Antoinette, and Eleonora Duse -- bold women who invented themselves, seized control of their image; women whose personalities defined the age they lived in and glittered out from the past. "She was fascinated," said Amy (Greene), "by women who had made it." Sometimes Amy found her sitting on the stairs, gazing at a portrait of Lady Hamilton, a coal miner's daughter who launched herself into the highest echelon of 18th-century society. Then she discovered Josephine and scooped up every book she could find about her, chattering at dinner about the empress and her friends. She regaled them with stories about Juliette Recamier, a brainy beauty who comissioned a nude statue of herself. When Juliette's breasts began to age she smashed the girlish marble ones -- controlling her image just like Marilyn."

- Elizabeth Winder, Marilyn in Manhattan. Her Year of Joy
