Reconstructing Empress Eugénie's position as private collector and public patron, this study is the first to examine Eugénie (1826-1920) in these roles. Her patronage and collecting is considered within the context of her political roles in the development of France's institutions and international relations. The book also examines representations of the empress, and the artistic transformation of a Hispanic woman into a leading figure in French politics.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1906 edition. Excerpt: ...raised him to the pinnacle he was now occupying. The name which had fostered his eager dreams, which had made Europe tremble, and had intoxicated France--this name must also be the chief support on which his fame must rest. He sought by every means in his power to preserve all Napoleonic traditions, and to lull the Parisians into sweet dreams that the glorious days of Napoleon the Great had returned. Several families were represented at Court that had been known in his Uncle's time, and at the entertainments that succeeded each other without intermission, it was the one main object to recall the magnificence of the First Empire. Officials, ministers, senators, and chamberlains wore uniforms heavy with gold embroidery. "Les Cent Gardes" who were on duty at the Palace, and rode before and behind the Imperial carriage, were fantastic in their splendour, and reminded one of some princely pageant on the stage. Many customs from the time of Louis XIV. were revived to aid in the display of the young Court. A straining after effect undoubtedly characterised the whole mode of life, and it has been said, hardly unjustly, that it was a theatrical Imperial Court, of which Eugenie was the centre. But this glittering, and at the same time tasteful, spectacle was acceptable to Frenchmen, who are naturally susceptible to outward appearances, and it was productive of hearty applause, which, however, belonged more to the effect than to the action of the play. An almost fabulous magnificence was displayed when foreign sovereigns came as guests.

Reconstructing Empress Eug?e's position as a private collector and a public patron of a broad range of media, this study is the first to examine Eug?e (1826-1920), whose patronage of the arts has been overlooked even by her many biographers. The empress's patronage and collecting is considered within the context of her political roles in the development of France's institutions and international relations. Empress Eug?e and the Arts: Politics and Visual Culture in the Nineteenth Century also examines representations of the empress, and the artistic transformation of a Hispanic woman into a leading figure in French politics. Based on extensive research at architectural sites and in archives, museums, and libraries throughout Europe, and in Britain and the United States, this book offers in-depth analysis of many works that have never before received scholarly attention - including reconstruction and analysis of Eug?e's apartment at the Tuileries. From her self-definition as empress through her collections, to her later days in exile in England, art was integral to Eug?e's social and political position.
