EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pierre-Francois-Joseph Lefebvre, Duc de Dantzig (1755-1820), a prominent figure in French military history and politics. Born in Metz, Lefebvre rose through the ranks of the French military, eventually earning the title of Marechal de France in 1804. He served under Napoleon Bonaparte and played a crucial role in several key battles, including the Battle of Austerlitz and the Battle of Wagram. Lefebvre's military prowess was not his only claim to fame. He was also a skilled diplomat and statesman, serving as the French ambassador to the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of Naples. In 1808, he was appointed Governor-General of the Illyrian Provinces, overseeing a vast territory that included present-day Croatia, Slovenia, and parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This print bears the authentic autograph of the Duc de Dantzig, adding an intriguing historical touch to the image. The inscription below reads "P.F.J. Lefebvre, Duc de Dantzig," further confirming the identity of the esteemed figure. The date range of 1755-1820 provides context for Lefebvre's impressive career, which spanned over six decades and left a lasting impact on French and European history. The intricately detailed engraving captures the essence of Lefebvre's regal bearing and military authority, making it a valuable addition to any historical collection. The print serves as a testament to Lefebvre's remarkable military and diplomatic achievements, as well as his enduring legacy in French and European history.
