Miscellaneous information
Niece of Napoleon I
married Russian art collector Anatoly Demidov, 1st Prince of San Donato (1813-1870) in 1840, but had a relationship with artist Alfred Émilien de Nieuwerkerke (1811-92) from 1845
Under the Second Empire (1852-70) she had a fahionable salon in Paris, but aroused barbed comments such as Léon Daudet's : « La princesse elle-même, à laquelle chacun s'accordait – je ne sais pourquoi – à trouver grand air, était une vieille et lourde dame, au visage impérieux plus qu'impérial, qui avait le tort de se décolleter. »
