EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite beauty of three busts of Napoleon Bonaparte, dating back to the late 18th century. The creator of these remarkable plaster sculptures remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to their allure. The left and center busts were skillfully crafted by Louis-Simon Boizot, who served as the chief sculptor at the renowned Sevres factory in France. The first was created in 1798, while the second was made in 1799 after Napoleon's return from his Egyptian Campaign. Both pieces showcase Boizot's exceptional talent for capturing the likeness and essence of this iconic figure. On the right side stands another captivating bust, attributed to an anonymous artist believed to be Cartellier. This piece adds a touch of enigma to the collection as its origins remain shrouded in uncertainty. Displayed together at Sevres, these masterful works pay homage to one of history's most influential figures - Napoleon Bonaparte. His military prowess and political achievements have forever etched his name into our collective memory. This photograph is taken from Raymond Guyot's book "Napoleon" published by H. Floury in Paris during 1921. It serves as a testament not only to Napoleon's enduring legacy but also to the timeless appeal that art holds over us throughout centuries past and present.
