Napoleonic uniforms and everyday dress

[designgoblin]

Anyone know a good online source for Napoleonic costume/uniform reference? I'm looking for enough detail to draw/model from so paintings of the period are ok but I was hoping for photographic stuff (museums, etc) I have some shots of Sean Bean as "Sharpe" (Brittish TV series) which is the right period (1800-1850) but I'd like some variety (colours, decorations) and some closeups.

Thanks in advance for any help.
