CROSS EXAMINATION - A Historic Encounter Between Cornwallis and Bonaparte in 1802
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "CROSS EXAMINATION" captures a pivotal moment in history when General Charles Cornwallis of England and Napoleon Bonaparte of France faced each other. Created by an unknown English artist from the 19th century, this artwork is housed at the Bromley Museum in Orpington, UK. The scene depicted here takes place during the early years of peace negotiations between England and France. At that time, there were concerns among the English about a potential French fleet sailing to the Caribbean with thousands of soldiers to confront Toussaint l'Ouverture in San Domingo. This engraving serves as a symbolic representation of diplomacy, war strategy, and political ambition. Cornwallis and Bonaparte are portrayed without caricature or exaggeration; their faces reflect determination and observation. Dressed in military uniforms adorned with badges and cockades representing their respective countries, they stand face-to-face as two powerful figures shaping European history. The allegorical nature of this print highlights not only the ambitions of these two individuals but also represents larger themes such as power struggles between nations and alliances formed during turbulent times. The intricate details captured through engravings showcase historical accuracy while providing insight into clothing styles prevalent during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from the 19th century, we are reminded once again how art can immortalize significant moments in our shared human story.
