Description

Marie Louise

Second wife of Emperor Napoleon I of France (1791-1847). ALS in French, signed “Louise,” 4.5 x 6.75, September 5, 1832. Written from Schonbrunn, a letter to her son William, in part [translated]: “My last days in Vienna have given me so many chores, my dear William, that I can only write you a couple of words to tell you how happy I will be to see you again and to be near you. I am so terribly tired that I believe my health will suffer as a result.” In fine condition. This letter dates to only a few weeks removed from the untimely death of Napoleon Francois Charles Joseph Bonaparte, the only son of Louise and Napoleon Bonaparte. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
