HRH Prince François Henri Luis Marie Guillaume of Luxembourg, Prince of Nassau, Prince de Bourbon de Parme -- b. 27 March 2023

François is a relatively uncommon name in the Grand Ducal Family; it is one of the middle names of Prince Robert, the first cousin of the Grand Duke, as well as Prince Wenceslas, one of the sons of Prince Jean and the Grand Duke's nephew.

Henri of course honors the current Grand Duke, who is little Prince François's grandfather.

Luis honors the Hereditary Grand Duke's younger brother, Prince Louis, as well as several other family members who have or had the name, including Prince Guillaume, the Hereditary Grand Duke's godfather, as well as Count Paul de Lannoy, the Hereditary Grand Duchess's late grandfather. The Spanish form possibly honors the Hereditary Grand Duke's Cuban heritage.

Marie is a long-standing tradition in the Grand Ducal Family honoring the Virgin Mary. Nearly all members of the Grand Ducal Family and the Lannoy family have this name, including both the Hereditary Grand Duke and Hereditary Grand Duchess.

Guillaume honors the Hereditary Grand Duke, his uncle and godfather Prince Guillaume, as well as four former reigning Grand Dukes.

Toilette de la duchesse de Parme, entre 1845 et 1851 Musée d'Orsay,1981

This ensemble was commissioned by a subscription circulated among the Legitimist ladies of France for the marriage, in November 1845, of Louise-Marie-Thérèse de Bourbon, the granddaughter of Charles X, and the Prince de Lucques, the future Duke Charles III of Parma. Its decoration evokes a nostalgic and idealised image of the Middle Ages as a period of loyalty to King and to God, as well as exalting traditional French values and the bonds of marriage. The fleurs-de-lis and roses of France are intertwined with ivy, the symbol of marital fidelity.

Sent to London in 1851 for the Great Exhibition, before being given to the Duchess, this prestigious piece of furniture contains references to many different civilisations – Occidental and Oriental – and achieves a synthesis of styles from various eras, from Saint Louis to Louis XIV.

The jewellery boxes, whose shape recalls 12th century Mosan reliquaries, are decorated with the portraits of twenty great French women renowned for their piety, courage and literary talent, such as Blanche de Castille, Joan of Arc and Clémence Isaure. The ewer and basin combine Islamic and Renaissance influences, while the candelabra are based on 17th century bronze models. The indeterminate style of the ensemble in fact demonstrates an eclecticism that would later prevail in the decorative arts under the Second Empire.

His life all dark and bland until he met you. He was out to eat in a restaurant Tony owned. He was there for "business" along with Steve. That’s when he met you, you were the waitress serving them. You had the brightest smile he has ever seen. How did you end up working here? He wonders watching as you set down the food they ordered. “Last but not least the chicken parm for you! May I refill your drink?” You ask smiling as he nods his head. “Bourbon, and may I get some extra sauce?” He asks flashing you a charming smile. You nod your head grabbing his glass. By the time the meeting ends he is tired and annoyed, but at least you were a small light in his boring evening. He couldn’t stop thinking about you the whole time, and eventually decided he would ask to you out. He stuck behind waiting till you came back over asking if he needed anything else. “Is there anything else I can do? Desert?” You offer smiling as you clear away the left over plates. “Yes actually, as you can see I’m very lonely is there anyway you could keep me company?” He questions messing with the ring on his pinky. “Sure I have a couple tables to clean off first then I’ll be right over” he smiles as you walk away quickly finishing picking up. He watches as people leave and it’s just the two of you. Then you return with a big piece of apple pie and two forks. “All we have left right now so I figured we could share, if you don’t mind?” You explain sitting across from him. He smiles taking a fork stabbing the pie and plopping it into his mouth. “So, what’s your name?” You ask mouth full of pie. “James, but my friends call me Bucky” You then introduce yourself and by the time you finish the pie and wash the plate it is well past sun down. “Thanks for the great ending of the night Bucky” You smiles pulling your Jacket closer to your cold body. “Doll, you sure you don’t want me to call an Uber?” He worries as you shake your head. “I don’t live far, I’ll be fine” he shakes his head not believing you. “It’s freezing cold and it’s the middle of the night, I’m walking you home” you can tell by his tone this is not a question it’s a fact. “Here take my coat, that thin Jacket isn’t gonna keep you warm” he takes off his thick warm coat putting it over your shoulders so you can slide your arms through. “So, why’d you move here?” He asks meeting your surprised eyes. “How’d you know I’m not from here” you ask confused and slightly amused. “It’s the middle of winter and all you brought is a small jacket” he laughs kicking a rock. “Wow you must be some kind of all knowing witch” you tease. “Wait wait wait, guess what number I’m thinking!” You shout making eye contact with him trying not to blink. “Hmmm, let’s see your thinking of the number four” he smiles as he plays along. “Nope, guess your not as cool as I thought” you fake a frown. “Don’t frown doll!” He laughs. “Hmm maybe you can make me smile again?” You fake pout crossing your arms. “Would a piggy back ride make you smile again?” You immediately nod your head. He bends slightly so you can climb on. Once on his back you point down the block towards your apartment. “Forward my loyal knight!” To on lookers it looks like two childish friends walking home, but to him? It’s like he’s dreaming, he’s never been happier than in this moment with you. “It’s the one on the corner” you point out as he slowly lets you down. “And the loyal knight dropped off the princess at her castle where he asked her on a date” he smiles as you giggle. “The princess says yes and gives the knight her number” you play along pulling out your phone and showing him your info. He watches as you then walk into your apartment only leaving once you made it inside safe.

“Bucky this place is so cute!” You giggle as you pet the cats circling your legs. He was determined to keep you out of his business life at all costs, and he is going to do this the old fashioned way. “I figured you’d like it” he laughs as a all white cat continues to try to reach you from its spot on a couch. Only to fall off landing on the hard floor of the cat cafe. “Awh poor kitty” you giggle as you pick up the small kitten. “It says her name is Alpine” Bucky smiles petting the cat. The two of you spent about an hour drinking coffee and letting the small kitten you’ve both come to love. Eventually Bucky gives in and adopts the cat. You could not be happier with his decision. After a couple months of dating you guys made it official. Your favorite moments were spent together with the kitten watching movies. Sometimes he would even come to your apartment after work and let you comfort his stress levels with a massage. Bucky’s life was going great till he began to notice familiar faces around your apartment and at your job. He always wrote it off as his paranoia until he saw him talking to you. Zemo stood outside your job sharing a cigarette with you as he laughed at something you had said. All Bucky saw was red, but he practiced self restraint by not killing Zemo on sight. Instead he waited till Zemo stopped at the gas station that night and left him a little "gift".

america was founded on the deaths of countless indigenous and enslaved peoples, minorities and the working class ground to dust beneath the boot of capital. anyone who says that america is perfect is selling you a bill of goods, but so is anyone saying that there is nothing worthwhile here, that there is nothing worth saving of the labors of the 330 million alive and the numerous dead. even the french did not destroy versailles
