Ney, Kellermann, and a pair of Eugene's look out of their glass prison at me. Unfortunately, they're $195... EACH. I check on them occasionally but the price has been the same for 2 years, at least.

Apparently this Eugene went on to conquer the Orient?

Marshals of the First French Empire buried at Père Lachaise Cemetery

Yesterday was the anniversary of the opening of the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris in 1804. @captainknell mentioned that they’re interested in seeing the tombs of the Marshals who are buried there and I realized that I actually have some pics of them. These are not all the Napoleonic figures buried there; not even close! There are actually quite a few notable figures buried at this cemetery.

The ends of the Marshals

We know a lot about our marshals of empires, but for some their existence ends in 1814, I did some research and I did all the dates of death of the 26 marshals of the empire with their age of death and some information that I had, do not hesitate to say other information if you have any, when we look closely Lannes was the first to die and at a young age while the one who spent the most time on earth is Moncey who lived until 87 years old, yet it is Marmont who will be the last to die in 1852, I hope that this will be useful for some.

I drew all 26 of Napoleon's marshals

A tier-list of the marshals mainly based on how much I hyperfixate on them. Feel free to drop your own opinions on here :3

Weltschmerz and glitter

"Weltschmerz and glitter" a review of 'Vier Panado's en 'n Chardonnay', with Elzabe Zietsman and Tony Bentel and directed by Johann Slabbert.

PROUD to be me: Elzabe Zietsman in Vier Panado’s en ‘n Chardonnay, at the Atterbury Theatre in Pretoria. Photograph courtesy woordfees.co.za WHAT IS REAL entertainment? Forget the shamelessly syrupy and pretty, it’s something that gnaws at your inner fibre without your quite being able to escape its clutches, and yet, it leaves you with a grin on your face and hope in your sense of the future.…
