…Murat is not truly known even by his compatriots, even to the greatest number of his companions in arms. His story as it is found in the writings with which we are inundated, and as it spread among the people, is practically a fable or a romance. It appears that the imagination of our century also wanted to create a new Roland alongside another Charlemagne. We meet more people inclined to believe that his sword, like Durandal, could cut giants or rocks in two, than disposed to persuade themselves that he knew how to make himself loved through the sweet virtues of a good king, and that he applied himself in ten years, with constancy, to making the happiness of the peoples he governed.
-Jean-Michel Agar, Count of Mosbourg

A great many myths have grown up around Caroline, chiefly because the rabid Bonapartists could never forgive her for betraying Napoleon in 1814, and the rabid royalists were out to prove how immoral, disgraceful, and extravagant the Bonapartes had been. These myths have been perpetuated by later historians until the general picture has been distorted out of all recognition.
-Joan Bear, Caroline Murat (1972).

Tell the whole truth, it alone can win a lasting trust; the heart of man has many contrasts, and it is often these apparently incompatible opposites which give to portraits the stamp of plausibility.
-Caroline Murat to the Count of Mosbourg, 4 September 1838.

Happy birthday to my favorite Napoleonic couple, both of whom happened to be born on the 25th of March (Murat in 1767, Caroline in 1782).

One more drawing from Albrecht Adam's "Voyage pittoresque": a little family gathering on the evening of 26 July 1812, between Ostrowno and Witebsk.

An emperor, his brother-in-law, his (adopted) stepson. Which kind of makes Murat Eugène's uncle. (And he actually adressed him as "mon cher neveu", my dear nephew, in those infamous letters they exchanged while they officially already were enemies in 1814.)

Hi guysssss! I’m back!! 🥺🙌💗 I’m slaying in college btw
I wanna draw more of Napoleon’s marshals! Their uniforms are sooo cool. Look how plain Napoleon is compared to his marshals 😭
I know that Lannes isn’t that tall, but I’m too unbothered to correct it 🤷‍♀️🥲
How is everyone?? 😘

After “I don’t know if he did that, but it was a fast way of saying he took Egypt” from R. Scott, I was hoping to see something like this.
Disappointed.

The first of what will probably be many posts translating Napoleon's letters to Murat (a project made infinitely easier thanks to the Fondation Napoléon's recent online publication of Napoleon's entire correspondence).
