EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - Napoleon and General Louis Desaix at the Battle of Marengo on 24 June 1800. The colour lithograph, created by Job (pseudonym for Onfray de Breville) in the late 19th century, showcases the intense atmosphere of warfare during the French Revolutionary Wars. In this scene, we see Napoleon and General Desaix consulting each other amidst the chaos of battle. Dressed in their distinctive military uniforms, they exude authority and determination. Napoleon's pocket watch suggests his meticulous attention to time management even amidst combat. The Battle of Marengo was a turning point for Napoleon's career as it secured his victory against Austria during the War of the Second Coalition. This triumph marked him as an exceptional commander and set him on a path towards becoming Emperor. The image not only depicts historical significance but also offers glimpses into daily life during that era. Horses play a prominent role, symbolizing both power and mobility on horseback. The soldiers surrounding them represent France's armed forces fighting alongside their leaders. Overall, this print is a testament to the bravery and strategic prowess displayed by Napoleon Bonaparte and General Louis Desaix at Marengo.
