EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fateful Days of the First (French) Empire" takes us on a visual journey through significant moments in Napoleon Bonaparte's reign. The top section portrays two pivotal events that shaped his rise to power: Napoleon's coup on 9 November 1799, which marked the end of the French Revolution and established him as First Consul, and his grand coronation on 2 December 1804, when he declared himself Emperor. Moving to the bottom portion of the print, we witness Napoleon's audacious invasion of Spain in 1807. This military campaign aimed to expand French influence but ultimately sparked resistance from Spanish guerrilla fighters. Finally, we are transported to one of history's most infamous episodes – the disastrous retreat from Moscow in 1812. As winter closed in mercilessly, Napoleon's Grande Armée suffered immense losses during their ill-fated Russian campaign. This artful composition is a popular colored print that beautifully captures these defining moments for France and Europe at large. It serves as a reminder of both Napoleon's remarkable achievements and his eventual downfall. With its rich historical significance and artistic appeal, this print by Universal Images Group (UIG) offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the dramatic narrative surrounding one of history's most influential figures without mentioning any commercial use associated with it.
