The courthouse building for the Tribunal de Commerce,

Paris, France,

Built between 1859 and 1865 on a design by architect Antoine-Nicolas Bailly, inspired by the Renaissance Palazzo della Loggia in Brescia. It was ceremoniously inaugurated by Napoleon III on 26 December 1865.

Rating: Not Cute!

Do not let your pet spooky Napoleon I and spooky Napoleon II hover ominously behind your Napoleon III and its chick. It makes the Napoleon III and chick uncomfortable and frankly, I’m sure there’s more enriching activities for your spooky Napoleons somewhere else.

I went out on a little outing today.

To my surprise, one of the museums where I live had both a bust of Napoleon III and a piece done by David!

Also to my surprise, Thorvaldsen was a lovely looking fellow in his youth!

When your fuckass alive human walks into a room and you need to pretend that you were not trying to send each other to superhell five seconds ago

I remember mentioning my "girls can see ghosts of historical figures" setting here awhile ago, so why not post something related to it again— (if someone is interested, i can drop some kind of lore here 👀👀 )

My husband asked me who was Napoleon and Marie Louise's son. I told him it was Napoleon II. He then asked who was Napoleon III's mother. I told him Josephine's daughter. He said, "What a man." And walked away.

Rating: Cute!

This Napoleon is surrounded by chicks! Contrary to Napoleons’ reputations for stoicism, they tend to have a fondness for children. This Napoleon is even cradling a future Napoleon III on its knee, very cute!

Edwige Feuillère and Monique Joyce duel in MAM’ZELLE BONAPARTE (1942)

#don't let the gifset fool you this scene lasts like 10 seconds tops and that's it #despite a ton of posters back then advertising this scene as the climax lmao #like my ex the film was overall a total anticlimax #however. #i cannot say no to some homoerotic swordfighting #i think the scene would have been more interesting if they became lovers afterward but alas #also i thought the costumes were beautiful #duel #you look at the posters that depict this scene and tell me they weren't trying to imply some sapphic undertones lmao #mam'zelle bonaparte (1942) #edwige feuillère #cora pearl #monique joyce #lucy de kaula #costume drama #period drama #napoleon iii #19th century #vintage #film #movie #noir et blanc #also this film was made during the german occupation of france so #it does sorta make sense that it wasn't an overwhelming success #edwige was asked about this film later in life and was basically like 'I am NOT talking about that film!! Terrible memories! Everything was #horrible! No no no no NO!' #i'm paraphrasing but she did yell and it was all negative #femmes #if edwige had to duel me i'd simply let her win and get on my knees immediately lol but that's just me--
