A notation in an unknown hand in the border reads, “April 1869. Given by Her Majesty the Empress.” Some scattered light spotting to image and a bit of trivial foxing to edges, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by a small portion of an ALS, signed “Eugenie,” to her nephew, reading in part: “No more marshals in France...I informed ‘Marcellus’ [(poem by Count Matheus on the death of the Prince Imperial)] that his poem could not displease me." In exile Eugenie traveled under the name 'Countess de Pierrefonds.
