Collage 257

Napoleon, in a colorful contrast to this neutral collage:

He rode at a gallop, in a small hat, with the sash of St. Andrew across his shoulder, in a blue tunic unbuttoned over a white camisole, on an extraordinary purebred gray Arabian stallion, on a gold-embroidered crimson shabrack. --p. 413 in P/V
