EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment during the Battle of Marengo when General Louis Desaix is being taken by carriage. The vibrant colors of this lithograph, created by Job (pseudonym for Onfray de Breville), bring to life the intensity and chaos of war in 19th-century Europe. In this scene, we see a horse-drawn carriage carrying General Desaix through a war-torn landscape. The fires raging in the background symbolize the destruction and violence that accompany such conflicts. Surrounding the carriage are soldiers dressed in Napoleonic uniforms, their expressions reflecting both determination and fear as they navigate through this treacherous battlefield. General Desaix's presence exudes authority and bravery as he calmly observes his surroundings from within the safety of his transport. His role as one of Napoleon Bonaparte's trusted generals during this decisive battle further emphasizes his importance in European history. The inclusion of an Italian flag hints at Italy's involvement in these Napoleonic conquests, highlighting its significance within broader European affairs. This image serves as a reminder not only of the horrors of war but also of how it shaped nations and alliances during this tumultuous period. Published in 1908, this lithograph was part of Georges Montorgueil's book on Bonaparte, providing readers with vivid illustrations that brought historical events to life. Today, it remains an invaluable piece within private collections dedicated to preserving our rich historical heritage.
