Two scarce, untranslated letters: an LS in Danish, signed "Frederick R," one page, 8.5 x 13.5, February 18, 1834; and an ALS in French, signed "Cousin Marie," one page, 7.5 x 9.5, December 31, 1816. In overall very good to fine condition, with soiling and small tears to top and bottom edges of the Frederick letter.
Frederick VI (1768-1839) served as last King of Denmark-Norway before losing the Norwegian crown in 1814 as a result of the French defeat in the Napoleonic Wars; he remained King of Denmark until his death. His wife, Marie of Hesse-Kassel (1767-1852), served as regent of Denmark during his absence to attend the Vienna Congress in 1814-1815.
