EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the historic moment when Napoleon Bonaparte is being transferred from HMS Bellerophon to HMS Northumberland for his exile on St Helena in 1815. The Danish School artist beautifully depicts this significant event, showcasing the early 19th-century boat transport between France and Great Britain. Napoleon, a prominent figure in European history, can be seen surrounded by sailors as he boards the awaiting vessel. His defeated and captive demeanor reflects the end of an era for both him and his empire. This poignant image serves as a reminder of his once powerful reign as a soldier, general, and commander. The composition also highlights the presence of warships in the background, symbolizing the military might that played a crucial role in Napoleon's rise and fall. As he embarks on this voyage towards exile, one cannot help but ponder upon his legacy and impact on French culture during this turbulent period. The lithograph not only offers historical insight into this pivotal moment but also showcases the artistic talent of its creator from the 19th century Danish School. It is through prints like these that we are able to connect with past events and appreciate their significance within our collective memory.
