EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Napoleon crushed under a hexagonal block" captured by the talented printmaker Hermanus Fock between 1812 and 1813, we are transported back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts Napoleon Bonaparte, the renowned French military leader, sitting heavily under an enormous hexagonal block. The scene unfolds amidst a chaotic battlefield, with maps of the world and Europe scattered around. The geographical references hint at the vast scale of Napoleon's conquests and his ambitious plans for dominance. As bad weather rages on, battered French troops try to lift the oppressive weight off their fallen emperor while lightning ominously strikes nearby. Amidst this turmoil, letters bearing the word "NAB" (presumably referring to Napoleon) can be seen spinning like spoons in a whirlwind. A lone eagle perched on a tree branch observes as countries such as Russia and Leipzig punish France for its aggressive campaigns. Fock's masterful composition skillfully captures both the physical struggle faced by Napoleon's soldiers and the metaphorical weight of his ambitions collapsing upon him. Quint Lox has expertly curated this piece from Liszt Collection, showcasing not only Fock's artistic prowess but also inviting viewers to reflect upon historical events that shaped our world today.
