The Marriage of Napoleon and Marie Louise, by Georges Rouget. This depicts the wedding held in the Louvre on April 2, 1810. It was the third of the couple’s three wedding ceremonies. They were married in a religious ceremony in Vienna on March 11, 1810. Napoleon was not present for that occasion (the bride’s uncle Charles stood in for the groom). They then had a civil wedding at the Château de Saint-Cloud on April 1, and the final religious wedding on April 2.
