Napoleon Bonaparte and the Red Man,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating handcoloured copperplate engraving by George Cruikshank, dates back to 1815. This intriguing image is taken from "The Life of Napoleon, a Hudibrastic Poem" by Doctor Syntax, published by T. Tegg in London. The engraving portrays Napoleon Bonaparte, the legendary French military and political leader, seated on a throne, clad in military attire, and adorned with a laurel wreath. His expression is one of contemplation, as if deep in thought. The background is filled with symbols of power and grandeur, including a golden eagle and a banner bearing the legend "Napoleon the Great." However, the intriguing element of this print is the figure of the Red Man, or the Devil, who stands before Napoleon. The Red Man, depicted with horns, a pitchfork, and a sinister grin, seems to be tempting the emperor with a golden apple. The title "Napoleon and the Red Man (the Devil)" suggests that this image is a caricature, highlighting the popular belief that Napoleon had made a pact with the devil to achieve his greatness. George Cruikshank, a renowned English satirical artist, was known for his wit and political commentary. This print, with its intricate details and vivid colours, is a testament to his artistic skill and the societal perceptions of Napoleon during his time. The image continues to fascinate historians, artists, and collectors alike, providing a unique perspective on the complex and enigmatic figure of Napoleon Bonaparte.
