EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the momentous occasion of Napoleon Bonaparte boarding HMS Northumberland for his exile on St Helena in 1815. The image, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the historical significance and grandeur of this event. As we gaze upon the print, we are transported back to that fateful day when Napoleon bid farewell to France and embarked on a voyage that would forever change his destiny. The ship stands tall and majestic, ready to carry its illustrious passenger across the vast sea towards his remote island prison. Napoleon himself is depicted with an air of stoicism and determination as he steps onto the vessel. Dressed in regal attire befitting an emperor, he exudes both power and vulnerability simultaneously. This poignant portrayal reminds us of the complex nature of this iconic figure who once ruled over much of Europe. The scene is filled with symbolism; it represents not only Napoleon's departure from his homeland but also marks a turning point in European history. It signifies the end of an era dominated by French imperialism and sets into motion a new chapter for both France and Great Britain. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder of one man's rise to power, followed by his dramatic fall from grace. It encapsulates a pivotal moment in time when empires clashed, destinies were altered, and history was forever shaped aboard HMS Northumberland bound for St Helena.
