The print captures a poignant moment in history as Napoleon Bonaparte, the renowned French military leader and emperor, leaves his army at Smorgoni during the invasion of Russia in 1812. The winter scene depicts a desolate landscape covered in snow, symbolizing the harsh conditions faced by both soldiers and their commander. French troops stand solemnly behind Napoleon, their loyalty evident despite the challenging circumstances. The typogravure technique used to reproduce this painting by J Rosen adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its emotional impact. Napoleon's departure from his army signifies a significant turning point in his career. It marks not only a strategic retreat but also reflects the toll that war took on him personally and professionally.
