EDITORS COMMENTS
The Incident of the Rose, 1896" captures a moment frozen in time, transporting us back to the elegant dining table of Napoleon Bonaparte himself. In this engraving by F De Myrbach, we witness an intriguing scene unfolding amidst the opulent surroundings. Seated at the head of the table is Napoleon Bonaparte, his commanding presence evident even in this monochrome depiction. Surrounding him are distinguished guests from French society, their expressions hinting at a mix of curiosity and amusement. Among them is Josephine de Beauharnais, his beloved empress and confidante. The incident that lends its name to this print remains shrouded in mystery. What could have transpired to capture such attention? Perhaps it was a mischievous prank or an unexpected mishap involving Marie Josephe Rose Tascher de La Pagerie - better known as Empress Josephine herself - who holds a single rose delicately in her hand. This artwork not only offers us a glimpse into the private world of one of history's most iconic figures but also serves as a testament to Felician von Myrbach Rheinfeld's skillful interpretation of William Milligan Sloane's "Life of Napoleon Bonaparte". As we admire this piece today, let our imagination wander through time and space, contemplating what might have unfolded during "The Incident of the Rose.
