EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving captures a historical moment in vivid detail - "Buonaparte at Rome giving an Audience in State, 1797". The image showcases the charismatic figure of Napoleon Bonaparte, then a rising military leader, as he receives an audience with Pope Pius VI. In this satirical caricature, Isaac Cruikshank masterfully depicts the clash between political power and religious authority. Dressed in his iconic French military uniform adorned with medals and a sword by his side, Buonaparte confidently occupies the throne while surrounded by cardinals and members of the Catholic Church. The scene is filled with symbolism: keys representing St. Peter's authority hang from the Pope's waist; holy water stands ready for blessing; and a crown lies discarded on the floor as if to suggest Napoleon's disregard for traditional monarchies. Yet amidst all this pomp and grandeur, there is also humor injected into the print. A mischievous touch shows one of Buonaparte's feet kicking at an unfortunate cardinal beneath him, adding levity to an otherwise serious portrayal. This illustration offers us a glimpse into both history and satire. It serves as a reminder of Napoleon Bonaparte's ambition to challenge established powers while highlighting tensions between church and state during this tumultuous period in European history.
