Marie Louise by Salomon-Guillaume Counis and Jean-Baptiste Isabey (Musée de la maison Bonaparte, Ajaccio Corsica)

Photo - probably Gérard Blot.

Empress Marie Louise wears a ruby and diamond parure with the tiara framed by hurluberlu-like banks of hair to the sides. Her dress has a gold-edged sawtooth modesty piece and two finely pleated ruffs.
