EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a rare moment in history when Napoleon Bonaparte, the renowned French military leader, took time off from his campaigning in Egypt to ponder the enigmatic Riddle of the Sphinx. The juxtaposition of this iconic figure with one of Egypt's most famous landmarks creates a powerful and thought-provoking image.
In 1798, Napoleon led a campaign to conquer Egypt and establish French control over the region. During his time there, he encountered many ancient wonders, including the Great Sphinx of Giza. In this photograph, we see him deep in contemplation as he gazes up at the massive stone statue.
The Sphinx itself is a symbol of mystery and wisdom, known for posing riddles to those who dare approach it. It is said that only those who can answer its riddle are worthy of passing by unharmed. Napoleon's presence next to this ancient monument highlights his curiosity and intellectual prowess beyond just being a military strategist.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured this historical moment with exquisite detail and clarity. This print serves as a reminder of Napoleon's complex character and his fascination with history and culture even amidst the chaos of war.
