A pair of boots said to have been worn by Napoleon Bonaparte could fetch up to $88,000 at auction in Paris
PARIS - A pair of boots thought to belong to French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte is expected to fetch up to 80,000 euros at a sale in Paris’ Drouot auctioneers on Friday.
“It’s difficult to separate these boots from the image we have of Napoleon,” said Alexandre Giquello, the auctioneer who will conduct the sale. They come in at a European size 40 and match descriptions of Napoleon’s boot orders placed with shoemaker Jacques in Paris’ rue Montmartre, the auctioneer said. They were owned by Napoleon’s final companion, Grand Marshal Bertrand, after the emperor’s death in 1821, it added.
