EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled ""You have done well, sir, I give you a captains rank, and attach you henceforth to my person"" takes us back to the 19th century. This artwork by English School is part of a private collection and was originally created as an illustration for Chatterbox in 1899. The scene depicted in this print transports us into a momentous occasion where Napoleon Bonaparte himself bestows the prestigious rank of captain upon an individual named Durosier. The words spoken by the French Emperor, "You have done well, sir" resonate with pride and recognition for Durosier's exceptional achievements. As we observe this historical event captured in intricate detail, it becomes evident that Durosier's dedication and bravery have not gone unnoticed. His unwavering commitment has earned him both honor and distinction within Napoleon's inner circle. From this point forward, he will be attached closely to the Emperor's person. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder of the significance placed on military ranks during that era. It also highlights the profound impact individuals can make through their hard work and devotion to duty. Through its masterful execution and attention to detail, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on themes such as leadership, loyalty, and personal sacrifice. It immortalizes a pivotal moment in history when one man's accomplishments were recognized by one of history's most influential figures – Napoleon Bonaparte himself.
