EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving, titled "Josephine de Beauharnais (1763-1814)" by Jonnard, showcases the captivating beauty and regal elegance of the first wife of Napoleon I and Empress of the French. The image, published in "The Iberian Illustration" in 1888, is a stunning representation of Josephine during her youth, before she became the Consort of France. Born in the 18th century, Josephine was a woman of great charm and intelligence, who captured the heart of the future Napoleon Bonaparte while he was still a soldier. In this portrait, she is depicted wearing an elegant and ornate dress, adorned with intricate patterns and rich colors. A magnificent necklace, adorned with precious jewels, adds to her regal appearance. The crown atop her head, adorned with pearls and diamonds, further emphasizes her status as Empress. The engraving, which has been beautifully colored, provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the French Empire during the early 19th century. Josephine's striking features, her expressive eyes, and the delicate folds of her clothing, all contribute to the captivating allure of this historic portrait. Josephine's life was marked by tragedy and triumph. She was a woman of many lovers, and her marriage to Napoleon was not without its challenges. However, she remained a devoted wife and a beloved figure in French history. This engraving, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, serves as a testament to her enduring legacy. The image, which was produced by the renowned engraver Jonnard, is a valuable addition to any collection of European history or art. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a woman who played a significant role in shaping the history of France and Europe.
