EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal moment in history during the French Campaign in Egypt and Syria. The image depicts Napoleon Bonaparte, the ambitious military leader, inspecting the possibility of digging the Suez Canal in December 1798. However, what makes this scene truly remarkable is that Napoleon barely escaped a dangerous situation known as "a la maree de la mer rouge" or "the Red Sea tide."
As we gaze upon this historical print, we are transported back to that fateful day when Napoleon's escape from the Red Sea on December 28th, 1798 was nothing short of miraculous. The tension and drama of this moment are palpable as we witness Napoleon navigating through treacherous waters with determination and courage.
The intricate details captured by the engraver bring to life the intensity of this event, showcasing both the grandeur of Napoleon's vision for Egypt and his narrow brush with disaster. This piece serves as a reminder of Napoleon's daring spirit and unwavering resolve in pursuit of his ambitions.
Through this exquisite engraving from "Histoire de l'Emperor Napoléon" by Laurent de l'l'deche, we are granted a glimpse into a defining chapter in Napoleonic history that continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
