The next morning: accolades and congratulations

The morning after the religious ceremony, the Emperor and the Empress, seated on their thrones, receive the accolades and congratulations from the Senate and Corps Législatif. This is the subject for plate XIII of the book published by Didot l'Ainé in 1810: Description des Cérémonies et des Fêtes qui ont eu lieu pour le mariage de S.M. l'Empereur Napoléon avec S.A.I. Madame l'Archiduchesse Marie-Louise d'Autriche.
