Yess who doesn’t love to hug your friend?

I think that Pepi is a type of guy who loves hugs, so…

I made a little, cute sketch! I hope you all like it!

Well, of course everyone will like it… expect Napoleon. He doesn’t look quite happy on that drawing.

Konstytucja 3 Maja by Jan Matejko (1891)

Happy birthday to the Polish Constitution of 3 May 1791, aka "if you're going to innovate democracy, go big or go home".

(Spoiler: they couldn't go home, since the 'go big' part was so naughty that mom, dad and dad put 'home' on the top shelf until the Polish people had sat in the corner for a while* and thought about what they'd done.)

*123 years

Featuring bonus Kościuszko:

TW: (VERY BADLY DRAWN) GORE!!!

The Ballad of Sara Berry

But instead it’s Joachim Murat! :D

Murat slayed…literally…

So…a friend of mine was listening to The Ballad of Sara Berry from the 35mm: A Musical Exhibition album and they mentioned how they were imagining Murat as the titular Sara Berry so I did what I had to do 😤

All the gore is really poorly drawn here, I just doodled everything really quickly but omg I love the concept of Murat girlbossing and murdering people for some reason 😭 It was also really fun to draw the marshals as dead guys for some reason 💀

Finding the body of Prince Józef

Having finished the series about the last year of Prince Józef's life, it is impossible to ignore the issue of finding his body, especially since many paintings illustrating that event were created in that era and later.

The Allies began searching for the bodies of those killed in the Battle of Leipzig already in the afternoon on the 19th October.

Prince Poniatowski's body was found only on the 24th, a very short distance from the place - about three hundred steps - where he tried to cross the Elster. It was recovered from the river, according to Szymon Askenazy, by Leipzig fishermen Johann Christian Friedrich and Johann Christian Meissner, and their assistants Adam Solten and Beniamin Meissner.

At the time of his death, the prince was wearing a Polish general's uniform, with a Virtuti Militari cross on his chest; some sources even state that being found he still was holding a broadsword in his hand. However, the wig Poniatowski used to wear, together with the artificial sideburns attached to it, slipped off the prince's head and wasn't found together with the body.

This circumstance made the identification of the body rather difficult. (Though, I had to say, the body’s state wasn’t as bad as it might be expected on the 5th day after death - the cold water kinda preserved it. Antoni Ostrowski even states that prince’ face was serene, smooth and beautiful as in life. But others wrote that there had been a dark spot on his forehead.)

Nevertheless, the Polish generals who had been taken by Allied as prisoners of war - Grabowski, Kamieniecki, Krasiński, Rożniecki and Umiński - recognized in the deceased man his commander...

One of the images from my collection even shows prince Józef without his wig (though with sideburns, and moustache - about which I am still not sure whether Poniatowski) was wearing it at the time of his death:

Having being found, Poniatowski's body was then deposited in the underground vault of the city hall of Leipzig (it was there where the official recognition was made).

Then it would be buried in the church of St. John (but this is the topic for another post...)

The first time I saw these two portraits I refused to believe they were the same person. But what I did believe was that he's cute.

Just some Pictures from a Little Outing

Yesterday, Mama Hopster and I (who really needed a break from Uni work, which has consumed most of my days.) went into Copenhagen to see the Thorvaldsen museum.

I had mentioned a week before that I wanted to go see the museum, since His statues looked awesome, and that there was a Poniatowski statue in there that i wanted to see (thank you @captainknell for asking if I had seen the statue. I probably wouldn't have realized it was there if you didn't.)

I knew there was other statues of figures who were involved in the Napoleonic wars there, but I wasn't sure how many were Displayed. But my surprise and delight, I could see all of them. There was three Pieces of Poniatowski:

This bust

This plaster model

and this full sized one

This Napoleon bust

One of Eugene de Beauharnais

Metternich (If this is accurate to his looks, I can't help but think he's pretty good looking.)

and here's other assorted pictures

OH MY GOD⁉️

ME? ALIVE?!

Yes, yes I am. Hello.

Why I am so inactive lately? Well, I have to focus on upcoming matura exam (only polish bros will understand what I mean) aaaand… I got a burnout :’)

I try to keep on drawing though (whenever I can)…

Additionally, I want to forgive everyone that I haven’t made a Halloween drawing. Please forgive me 😔🙏

Anyways, I’ve learned how to render (FINALLY) and I managed to find some time to make this piece for you all:

It’s not much, but it’s honest work.
