Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Queen Hortense and Her Friends, Vol. 2 of 2: 1783-1837 The conclusion of the saddest chapter of her mother´s life must have brought relief to Hortense. She had no longer to stand by helplessly, watching the accomplishment of the sacrifice; it was possible to escape from the gaze of those who rejoiced in Joséphine´s fall, and to avoid all but friendly faces. Yet Malmaison, full of memories of what had perhaps been the happiest years of both mother and daughter, must have served to accentuate the sharpness of regret. The Empress, moreover, having made an effort to go through the last scenes at the Tuileries with dignity and self-restraint, had now given way to the full expression of her grief.
