  • A faded and cracked felt bicorne hat worn by Napoléon Bonaparte sold for $2.1 million at an auction1 Sunday of the French emperor’s belongings2.

    上周日,在法国皇帝拿破仑·波拿巴的私人物品拍卖会上,他戴过的一顶褪色、破裂的毡帽以210万美元的价格成交。

    The signature broad, black hat — one of a handful still in existence that Napoléon wore when he ruled 19th-century France and waged war in Europe — was initially3 valued at 600,000 to 800,000 euros ($650,000-870,000).

    这顶标志性的宽大黑帽子是拿破仑在19世纪统治法国和在欧洲发动战争时戴过的为数不多的帽子之一,最初的估价为60万至80万欧元(65万至87万美元)。

    While other officers customarily wore their bicorne hats with the wings facing front to back, Napoleon wore his with the ends pointing toward his shoulders.

    其他军官通常都戴着帽檐朝前朝后的双角帽,而拿破仑戴着帽檐朝肩的双角帽。

    The hat on sale was first recovered by Col. Pierre Baillon, a quartermaster under Napoléon, according to the auctioneers.

    据拍卖商说,这顶帽子最初是由拿破仑手下的军需官皮埃尔·巴永上校(Pierre bailon)找到的。

    The hat then passed through many hands before industrialist4 Jean-Louis Noisiez acquired it.

    The entrepreneur spent more than a half-century assembling his collection of Napoleonic memorabilia, firearms, swords and coins before his death in 2022.

    据拍卖商说,这顶帽子最初是由拿破仑手下的军需官皮埃尔·巴永上校(Pierre bailon)找到的。在实业家Jean-Louis Noisiez买下这顶帽子之前,它又转手了很多人。
