A 19th Century Print Depicting The Life of Napoleon Bonaparte
Lithographic Print With Hand-Colouring
English
Pre-1840
Measures:-
37.8 cm x 28.1 cm
An interesting historical print setting out events from the life of Napoleon over thirteen vignette images, arranged around a central text relating to the images, with a portrait image of the French Emperor along with various martial symbols, flags and trophies and the Imperial Eagle to the top.
A print with a brief potted biography of Napoleon from his birth to his death. The publication probably dating to before the 'Retour des Cendres' (the return of his mortal remains to France) in 1840, as this event is absent from the chronology.
A fascinating and useful print for any admirer of Napoleon. Seemingly very rare; no other copy located.
