EDITORS COMMENTS
This print commemorates the Festival for the Coronation of Napoleon and Josephine, held on the Place de la Concorde in Paris on 3 December 1804. The historic event marked the formal recognition of Napoleon Bonaparte as the Emperor of the French. The Place de la Concorde, adorned with grand decorations and throngs of people, served as the backdrop for the imperial procession and the coronation itself. Amidst the festivities, five hot air balloons ascend into the winter sky, symbolizing the spirit of innovation and transportation that characterized the Napoleonic era. The balloons, with their distinctive burners and woven baskets, were a popular form of air transport during this time, offering a unique perspective of the world from above. The eagle, a potent imperial symbol, soars above the scene, underscoring the power and grandeur of the occasion. The Coronation of Napoleon was a momentous event in European history, and this print captures the excitement and wonder of the day. The people gathered in the streets, dressed in their finest attire, bear witness to the imperial procession and the balloon ascents. The fusion of imperial pomp and the emerging technology of air travel encapsulates the spirit of the time, making this print a fascinating glimpse into the past.
