The 6th child of Eugene & Augusta de Beauharnais died at birth..

… so we will entertain you today instead with a painting of Princess Mathilde of Urach.  Mathilde was the daughter of Theodolinde (Eugene and Augusta’s 5th born), who married Paolo, Prince of Oriolo and Viano.

This is a portrait of her in 1861 dressed “retro-Elizabethan” for a costume ball.
