EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Bonaparte at the Council of the Five Hundred - St. Cloud, November 10,1799 (19th Brumaire), 1896". This print captures a significant moment in history as Napoleon Bonaparte emerges as the leader of France. Depicting an engraving based on François Bouchot's painting from 1840, this image showcases Bonaparte's audacious rise to power. In this scene, we witness Bonaparte leading a group of grenadiers who forcefully remove the Council from their chambers in St. Cloud, Paris. It was on November 10th, 1799 (known as the 19th Brumaire) that he seized control and established himself as France's First Consul. The intensity and determination radiating from Bonaparte's face reflect his unwavering ambition to reshape France politically and militarily during a time of great turmoil. His strategic genius would later lead him to become Emperor Napoleon I. William Milligan Sloane's book "Life of Napoleon Bonaparte" serves as the source for this historical depiction captured by Peter Aitken through an engraving process. This remarkable print transports us back to the early nineteenth century when Europe was embroiled in Napoleonic Wars. As we gaze upon this monochrome image, it is impossible not to be captivated by both its artistic quality and its ability to transport us into one of history's most pivotal moments – where one man reshaped an entire nation with his iron will and military prowess.
