In "The Plum Pudding in Danger or State Epicures taking un Petit Souper, " an engraving from 1805, we catch a glimpse of Napoleon's strategic mind at work. With his empire threatened, he navigates through treacherous waters with finesse and determination. "The King of Brobdingnag and Gulliver, " a hand-coloured engraving published in 1803, showcases Napoleon's larger-than-life persona as he commands respect and awe from both allies and adversaries alike. His charisma knows no bounds as he stands tall amidst towering challenges.

Painted around 1900 using oil on canvas, it reflects his exile on this remote island where he spent his final days contemplating past glories and pondering what could have been. Love also found its way into Napoleonic chronicles; "Napoleon I and Marie Louise" showcases the Emperor's tender side.
