EDITORS COMMENTS
This theatrical poster, featuring the iconic image of Napoleon Bonaparte in exile, is a testament to the enduring allure of the historical figure and the power of the stage. The image, titled "The Exile," was created by renowned artists Lloyd Osborne and Austin Strong, with Martin Harvey portraying Napoleon. The poster was first unveiled at the Royalty Theatre in London on May 9, 1903, and later toured to the Theatre Royal in Edinburgh on September 19 of the same year. The image shows Napoleon, dressed in a simple brown coat and hat, standing with his back to the viewer, gazing out at the vast expanse of the sea. His arms are crossed behind him, conveying a sense of contemplation and resignation. The artist, Albert Morrow, masterfully captures the melancholic mood of the scene, making it a popular choice for entertainment during the early 1900s. Despite initial doubts about Martin Harvey's suitability for the role, his portrayal of Napoleon proved to be a compelling one, drawing audiences to the play. The image on this poster, with its striking composition and evocative use of color, would have undoubtedly contributed to the play's success. This poster is an intriguing glimpse into the past, showcasing the theatrical artistry of the early 20th century and the enduring fascination with the life of Napoleon Bonaparte.
