EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph print, created by artist Francois Pigeot in the mid-19th century, depicts the historic Battle of Friedland that took place on 14 June 1807. The battle marked a significant turning point in the War of the Fourth Coalition as Napoleon Bonaparte led his French army to a decisive victory over the Russian forces commanded by Bennigsen. The scene portrayed in this artwork showcases the intensity and chaos of warfare during that era. Amidst billowing smoke and exploding shells, soldiers engage in fierce combat on a battlefield located about 27 miles southeast of Konigsberg (now Kaliningrad). Pigeot's attention to detail is evident as he captures every aspect of this historical event - from infantrymen firing their muskets to generals strategizing amidst the turmoil. Napoleon himself is depicted prominently, exuding an air of authority and determination befitting his status as Emperor of France. His presence symbolizes both his military prowess and ambition for territorial expansion. This lithograph serves as part of a series illustrating Napoleon's campaigns, offering viewers an insight into one of history's most renowned military leaders. With its vibrant colors and meticulous composition, this print not only commemorates a crucial moment in European history but also highlights Pigeot's artistic skill. It stands as a testament to the enduring fascination with Napoleon Bonaparte and his impact on warfare during the early 19th century.
