EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Napoleon and his sister Elisa" depicts a significant moment in history. The colour lithograph, created by Job (pseudonym for Onfray de Breville), showcases Napoleon Bonaparte assuming responsibility for his sister, Elisa, during their time at St Cyr around 1784. At that period, the young Bonaparte was a student at the military school of Paris. Published in the book "Bonaparte" by Georges Montorgueil and illustrated by Job in 1908, this artwork offers a glimpse into the early years of one of history's most influential figures. In this image, we witness Napoleon taking charge as he prepares to shape his destiny as an emperor. The lush trees surrounding them create a serene backdrop for this intimate family scene. As siblings stand side by side, their bond is evident through their shared gaze and body language. This portrayal not only highlights their relationship but also hints at the future roles they would play on the world stage. With its rich historical context and artistic finesse, this print captures both personal connections and grand ambitions within one frame. It serves as a testament to Napoleon's rise to power and offers viewers an opportunity to delve into French history while appreciating the beauty of fine art photography.
