EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Sabretache of Joseph-Napoleon Bonaparte, King of Spain" a stunning piece from the 19th century. The sabretache, made of red Morocco leather, is adorned with intricate embroidered goldwork and gilt-brass mounts. At its center lies the crowned monogram JN above a laurel wreath, symbolizing victory and honor. The photograph captures the essence of royalty and military prowess. It reveals the attention to detail in every aspect of this historical artifact - from the fine embroidery on the straps to the cast and chased gilt-brass mounts on both sword and belt. The sabretache's rich history is evident as it bears witness to significant events such as the Battle of Vittoria in June 1813. Accompanied by an old handwritten note stating its origin, this particular sabretache was taken from Joseph Napoleon's carriage after that fateful battle by Colonel William Ponsonby of the 5th Dragoon Guards. While this exquisite piece remains part of a private collection, its sibling artifacts can be found at Windsor Castle. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to an era defined by grandeur and power. It serves as a reminder not only of Joseph-Napoleon Bonaparte's reign but also highlights his connection to one of history's most influential figures - Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte himself.
