EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases a remarkable medal struck by Napoleon Bonaparte in anticipation of his planned invasion of England. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the intricate details and historical significance of the medal. The image depicts a beautifully designed round medallion featuring Napoleon's profile on one side, exuding power and determination. On the reverse side, we see a symbolic representation of England under siege, with warships sailing towards its shores. The meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every stroke, highlighting the skill and artistry involved in creating such a masterpiece. This medal serves as a testament to Napoleon's ambitious military strategies and his desire to conquer new territories across Europe. It reflects both his confidence in victory over England and his recognition of its strategic importance within European politics at that time. Preserved within a private collection, this print offers us an opportunity to delve into history and explore the mindset of one of Europe's most influential figures. Through this engraving, we are transported back to an era marked by political tensions between France and England. As we admire this digitally cleaned image from A Short History of the English People by J R Green (Macmillan, 1892), we gain insight into not only Napoleon's aspirations but also how these events shaped European culture and politics during that period.
