EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting aftermath of Napoleon's ill-fated retreat from Moscow in 1812. Depicted in an early 20th-century book illustration, this image tells a story of immense loss and devastation during the Napoleonic Wars. The Grande Armee, consisting of a staggering 600,000 soldiers, embarked on what would become one of history's most infamous military campaigns. However, as they retreated from Moscow, only a mere fraction—approximately 100,000 soldiers—would return to their homeland. The scene depicted here is both somber and poignant. The desolate landscape serves as a stark reminder of the harsh Russian winter that mercilessly claimed countless lives. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness the toll that war takes on humanity. Napoleon's retreat from Moscow marked a turning point in his empire's fortunes and ultimately led to his downfall. This photograph serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit and sacrifice exhibited by these French soldiers who fought bravely under their leader's command. As we reflect upon this historical moment captured within these frames, let us remember those who perished on this arduous journey and pay homage to their unwavering dedication to their country.
