EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable caricature of Napoleon Bonaparte, depicted as a warrior man riding on a horse skeleton. The artwork, titled "Napoleon: caricature in a warrior man on a horse skeleton - in 'Napoleon 1er'" is part of the collection of caricatures from 1815 by an unknown artist. The image captures the essence of satire and political commentary prevalent during the early 19th century. Through this clever portrayal, the artist challenges Napoleon's military prowess and power by juxtaposing him with the fragility and transience symbolized by the skeletal horse. Displayed at Bibliotheque Historique de la Ville de Paris in France, this historical artifact offers valuable insights into how public opinion was shaped through visual representations during that time period. It serves as a testament to both artistic creativity and political discourse. Photographed by Leonard de Selva, this print preserves not only the original artwork but also its intricate details for future generations to appreciate.
