I post an almost unknown portrait of Eugenie as a young woman. It was painted by Rodríguez de Guzman:

I would like to see photos of Eugenie in her older age, for the most of paintings show her when she was younger. Does anyone have them ?

On this link you can see Eugenie also as a old lady: http://www3.hants.gov.uk/museum/aldershot-museum/local-history-aldershot/empress-eugenie.htm
But mostly is not easy to obtain on internet photos of her in older age. Or maybe I seek only on bad places Undecided.

Magazines such as the Illustrated London News and L'Illustration printed old age photos of Eugenie.

Thank you both, Princess Susan and GDella. I've seen L'Illustration in France when I was on my holiday there three days ago, but they are very expensive... Sad

This one is identified as Duchesse of Alba, but it's almost too simillar to Eugenie, isn't it?

Nice!!!

It's a lovely drawing.

I have never seen a portrait of Paca, so I can't judge how similar she and Eugenie were in looks.  However the suggestion of the colouring is more compatible with Paca, who was apparently dark...........

A photo of the Empress in 1920, the year she died. It's perhaps my favourite picture of her. So touching...

I've got a beautiful reproduction of a portrait of Paca by Winterhalter, so I can assure that this is Paca, indeed. I'll post here the portrait by Winterhalter in a couple of days. I don't have the book at hand for now!
