Death of the Empress Josephine, France.

There were very few medals made with Josephine as their subject, odd for an Empress. She died shortly after Napoleon's first abdication and this medal dates from that period. Virtually all of her medals date from the time of Napoleon III who honored the memory of his grandmother.
