EDITORS COMMENTS
The Narrow Escape of Bonaparte from the Battle of Leipzig, 1814" is a captivating engraving that depicts a pivotal moment in history. Created by S. W. Fores, this print showcases the dramatic escape of Napoleon Bonaparte from the infamous Battle of Leipzig. The image portrays an allegorical scene filled with symbolism and emotion. Amidst the chaos of war, we see Bonaparte on horseback, desperately fleeing the battlefield as smoke billows around him.

This engraving serves as a powerful reminder of Napoleon's ultimate defeat and downfall. It highlights not only his military prowess but also his vulnerability as he narrowly escapes capture or death at Leipzig.
