EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to the historic Battle of Lodi on 10th May 1796. The renowned General Bonaparte, later known as Emperor Napoleon, takes center stage as he confidently gives orders amidst the chaos and intensity of war. Painted by Louis Lejeune in approximately 1804, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 185x240 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Château de Versailles in France. The scene unfolds on a picturesque landscape featuring the majestic River Adda flowing serenely beneath a grand stone bridge. As smoke billows from cannons and muskets firing in the distance, troops valiantly fight for victory under their leader's watchful eye. Soldiers can be seen maneuvering strategically while a village stands stoically against the backdrop. General Bonaparte himself sits atop his horse with an air of authority and determination. His presence commands attention as he directs his men with precision and confidence. This image captures not only a significant moment in history but also showcases Lejeune's exceptional talent for capturing movement and emotion through brushstrokes. This remarkable artwork serves as a powerful reminder of Napoleon's military genius during his early campaigns in Italy. It immortalizes him at one of his most iconic moments - leading his troops to triumph against all odds at Lodi.
