The Flight of Napoleon from the Battle of Waterloo, 1815 - A Captivating Glimpse into History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This coloured etching by Friedrich Campe offers a vivid portrayal of one of history's most significant moments - The Flight of Napoleon from the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The print, housed in the Bibliothèque Paul-Marmottan in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, takes us back to that fateful day when the French emperor faced defeat. The image depicts a chaotic scene on the battlefield as soldiers and horses gallop frantically amidst billowing smoke and dust. With his iconic bicorne hat atop his head, Napoleon can be seen riding away on horseback, desperately fleeing from the relentless pursuit of Belgian and Allied troops. This dramatic representation captures both the intensity and desperation felt during this pivotal moment in history. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke brings life to each soldier, horse, and weapon depicted. It serves as a testament to Campe's skill as an engraver and his ability to convey emotion through art. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time - witnessing firsthand the chaos and turmoil that unfolded during this decisive battle. It reminds us not only of Napoleon's fall but also highlights the bravery and determination exhibited by those who fought against him. In preserving this piece within their collection, eBibliothèque Marmottan allows future generations to appreciate its significance while providing valuable
