EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Code of Napoleon the Great for the principality of Lucca" which holds immense historical significance. Published in 1806, this is the first official edition and a rare artifact from that time period. The code was printed by Presso Bertini in Lucca, Italy, and measures 27.3x19.7 cm. The Code of Napoleon played a crucial role in shaping legal systems across Europe during the Napoleonic era. This particular edition includes not only the code for Lucca but also the rural code for both Lucca and Piombino principalities, making it an invaluable resource for scholars studying European law. The title page reveals Elisa Bonaparte as one of its key figures; she was Napoleon's sister and ruled over these principalities at that time. The text within this book has been translated into Italian to ensure accessibility to readers. With its elegant design and meticulous printing, this print captures every detail of this important piece of history. Preserved in Bibliothèque Paul-Marmottan in France, it stands as a testament to Napoleon's influence on codification and legal reforms throughout Europe. This image provides us with a glimpse into an era when laws were being standardized under one powerful ruler's vision—a true reflection of how art can convey historical narratives beyond mere words or images alone.
