Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Flight of Marie Antoinette The name and mould of a hero of romance, regular features, a sensitive mouth, an expression half tender and half bold, a slender figure, and the immense advantage of belonging to that Scandinavian race whose prestige was so irresistible - such, with his eighteen years, was the equipment with which in December, 1773, the Comte de Fersen made his first appearance in Parisian society. For three years he had been travelling about Europe under the guidance of a tutor, paying successive visits of some length to Brunswick, where he had studied "the profession of arms"; to Turin, which excelled in the teaching of philosophy; and to Strasbourg, which boasted of famous schools of medicine, gunnery, and dancing. When a foreigner, at the close of his student days, came to France to complete his education and acquire the manners of the great world, it was his bounden duty to submit to three ordeals, which for a young man of good breeding at that time took the place, to a certain extent, of our trivial and meaningless Bachelors´ Degree.
