Henri-Gatien Bertrand (1773 – 1844) was a French general who served during the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic Wars. He also served as Napoleon Bonaparte's executor, having followed the emperor in both the exiles to Elba and Saint Helena.[1]

In 1840, he participated in the repatriation of Napoleon's body to France, having it moved to the Saint-Jérôme chapel at Les Invalides along with some of his items. Bertrand also retrieved the late emperor's Apple of Eden from its hiding place in a crypt underneath the hospital, moving it closer to Napoleon's body, under a golden cushion atop of which rested Napoleon's precious sword from Austerlitz.[2]
