Commentary


Ce jeton, par sa facture, a certainement été frappé en Alsace.
Marie-Louise est la fille de François Ier, empereur d’Autriche. Napoléon Ier qui venait de triompher à Wagram avait exigé sa main comme une condition de la paix avec l’Autriche. Elle fut reçue en France avec enthousiasme ce que montre cette médaille. Leur mariage eut lieu à Paris le 2 avril 1810 et elle donna le jour au roi de Rome l’année suivante. Après la défaite de Napoléon Ier elle rejoignit son père, resta à Schönbrunn d’où elle géra de façon libérale les duchés de Parme, de Plaisance et de Guastalla dont la souveraineté viagère lui avait été donnée.

Historical background


FIRST FRENCH EMPIRE. Napoléon Emperor bare head - Republican calendar

(18/05/1804-6/04/1814)

Napoleon proclaimed himself king of Italy on March 7, 1805 and appointed viceroy Eugène de Beauharnais, his son-in-law. Genoa is annexed to France on June 6. Napoleon I, from the camp of Boulogne, prepared an invasion of England during the spring and summer of 1805. The formation of the third coalition with Austria, England, Russia, Sweden and Naples on August 9 forces Bonaparte to leave Boulogne quickly; at the head of the Grande Armée, he went to the aid of Bavaria invaded by the Austrians. The capitulation of Ulm on October 20 opens the doors of Vienna which is invested on November 14. Meanwhile, the Franco-Spanish squadron was destroyed at Trafalgar by the English fleet commanded by Admiral Nelson who died during the battle. Napoleon won the Battle of Austerlitz on December 2, 1805 over the Austro-Russians. The Treaty of Pressburg gives Napoleon Venetia and Dalmatia.
