FRANCE-HISTORY-NAPOLEON-AUCTION

South Korean T.K Lee, buyer of one of Napoleon's famous two-pointed hats, gestures in Fontainebleau on November 16, 2014 in the Osenat auction house. The black felted beaver fur "bicorne" hat is valued at between 300,000 and 400,000 euros ($375,000-$500,000), but it was bought at 1.9 million euros ($2.2 million). Nearly 1,000 objects -- part of the royal family of Monaco's private Napoleon collection -- that once belonged to French Emperor Napoleon I go on sale on November 15 and 16, with the highlight being a two-cornered hat said to have been worn by Napoleon during the Battle of Marengo in Italy in 1800.
