EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures a pivotal moment in the Napoleonic Wars as Napoleon Bonaparte and his troops make their way across the Alps, using the Saint Bernard Pass to invade Italy on 20 May 1800. The French army, having successfully conquered much of Europe, now set their sights on expanding their territory southward. With the mighty Alps standing in their way, the soldiers and their horses braved the treacherous terrain, guided by local guides and the legendary Saint Bernard dogs. The image portrays a sense of determination and resilience as the soldiers trudge through the snow, their faces set with focus and grit. The Saint Bernard dogs, renowned for their strength and courage, are depicted leading the way, their thick coats and bells providing comfort and guidance in the harsh mountain conditions. This crossing of the Alps was a significant turning point in the Napoleonic Wars, solidifying Napoleon's reputation as a military genius and expanding the reach of the French Empire. The Saint Bernard Pass, with its challenging terrain, became a symbol of the perseverance and tenacity of the French troops, paving the way for their victories in Italy and beyond.
