The residences enabled Eugénie to provide family and friends with accommodations for extended periods of time. They also became venues where she articulated her agency through the interior decoration she commissioned and by the manner in which she installed her art collection. The residences evolved as spaces through which Eugénie interpreted and expressed her positional perspective and thus they offer an important means to understand her subjectivity. Any attempt to define a particular taste for Eugénie must, however, account for the intersection of her values as an individual and the demands of her role, her career as empress. As a patron, she consistently manifested a profound commitment to fulfilling her personal and professional responsibilities. From the time of her marriage in 1853 up until her death in 1920, Eugénie successfully negotiated within the complex Bonaparte family institution and the shifting politics of successive French governments.Cairn free access
