EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking historical print depicts the failed assassination attempt on Napoleon Bonaparte during the Schönbrunn Palace parade in 1809. The image captures the tense moment as the Austrian patriot, Johann Christian Friedrich Högler, better known as Stabs, lunges forward with a knife in hand, aiming to end the ongoing war and bring peace to Europe. The parade was being held at Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna, Austria, to celebrate the Austrian victory over the French army in the Battle of Wagram. Amidst the jubilant crowd, Stabs saw his opportunity to strike, believing that the only way to put an end to the devastating conflict was to eliminate its leader. However, his plan was foiled as the highly trained French soldiers, who were on high alert, quickly apprehended him before he could inflict any harm on Napoleon. The print vividly portrays the chaos that ensued, with soldiers scrambling to secure the area and prevent any further disturbances. Despite being caught, Stabs' motive was clear - he wanted to bring an end to the fighting and bring peace to Europe. His act of defiance, though unsuccessful, served as a symbol of hope and determination for those who longed for an end to the war. This historical print offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in European history, capturing the drama and tension of a failed assassination attempt on one of the most influential figures of the time. The image is a poignant reminder of the complexities and consequences of war, and the lengths people will go to bring about peace.
