When wearing his chasseur uniform – what color was Eugene's pelisse.

All the images I have show him with it turned away. Was it red per the Chasseurs à Cheval of the Guard?

Yes it was scarlet. He was an officer in the Chasseurs a Cheval de la Garde and as such was entitled to the full uniform of scarlet, green and gold.

This is a particularly nice picture that should help as well.
