EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph by Job, we are transported back to the Battle of Aspern Essling in 1809. The scene depicts a pivotal moment as Napoleon Bonaparte receives news of the death of his trusted Marshal Lannes. The emotions on Napoleon's face are palpable - a mix of shock, grief, and determination. He sits at a table, surrounded by his officers and soldiers who anxiously await his reaction. The room is filled with tension as everyone realizes the impact this loss will have on their campaign. Job masterfully captures the chaos and urgency of war through intricate details. A gurney can be seen in the background, reminding us that even amidst battle, life must go on. Soldiers rush around carrying trays with food and drink for their exhausted comrades. This image serves as a reminder that war not only brings destruction but also personal sacrifice. It showcases Napoleon's ability to lead under immense pressure while facing devastating losses. The lithograph is part of "Le Grand Napoléon des Petites Enfants" an 1893 collection by Job (Jacques Onfroy de Breville). Through this artwork, we gain insight into historical events that shaped nations and individuals alike. Stefano Bianchetti has preserved this powerful moment in history through his meticulous restoration work. This print allows us to reflect upon the human cost of warfare and appreciate the bravery displayed by those who fought alongside Napoleon during one of Europe's most turbulent periods.
