Based on the enormous canvas by Guillaume-François Colson (a pupil of the great Jacques-Louis David) which was exhibited at the Salon in 1812 and is now at Versailles, it nonetheless differs from Colson’s painting in a number of details, in particular the omission of a soldier at the extreme left.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePresented in a truly magnificent carved and gilt frame 6 ¼ inches (16 cm) in width, this is a stunning statement painting befitting a large drawing-room, library or study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story depicted took place during the French entry into the conquered Egyptian city of Alexandria on the 3\u003csup\u003erd\u003c\/sup\u003e of July 1798. Some defenders continued to resist, firing on the French from buildings, and in the painting we see an Arab man about to be executed by furious French soldiers. The distraught women of his family have thrown themselves down before Napoleon pleading for his life, proffering a tiny baby and begging for mercy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNapoleon – then General Bonaparte – stretches out his right hand in the gesture of a king or a god to stop the soldier with a sword from killing the Arab. This painting, as conceived in 1812, was designed to reinforce the myth of the Emperor (as Napoleon was by then) as a merciful ruler above the ranks of ordinary men and as a man of chivalry who will listen to the appeals of helpless women. It stands alongside similar depictions of Napoleon’s clemency to the daughter of Saint-Simon at Madrid or to the eight-months-pregnant princesse de Hatzfeld, whose husband had been condemned to death for treason. There are also parallels with Gros’s great painting “Bonaparte visiting the Plaque Victims at Jaffa”, another scene from the Egyptian campaign, in which Napoleon appears once again as a god or a king laying his hands upon the victims of bubonic plague.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrouped together with Napoleon are two other generals, both later to become Marshals and central to the Napoleonic story, Murat and Berthier. Excellent portraits of both men appear above the head of Bonaparte’s grey horse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting is more concerned with the glorification of the Emperor than with the simple depiction of history. It contains elements that would have been instantly recognisable to those viewing Colson's huge painting in 1812 – several soldiers near Napoleon are in the uniform of the Chasseurs à Cheval de la Garde Impériale, Napoleon’s favoured bodyguard, who were the Guides à Cheval in 1798; and the grey horse is clearly meant to be reminiscent of the famous Marengo, who did indeed come from Egypt but may not have been in the General’s possession at the taking of Alexandria.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"After Guillaume-Fran\u0026ccedil;ois COLSON (French, 1785 \u0026ndash; 1850)","offers":[{"title":"Price on Application","offer_id":55616583401814,"sku":"NA001-22556","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1048\/3050\/1206\/files\/Colson_20-_20Napoleon_20-_20cropped_20stamped_20-_20med_202_20-_2000_45602ceb-2750-4df4-880a-7e6653e2ee11.jpg?v=1791279701"},{"product_id":"22766","title":"\"The Battle of Cape Matapan: the sinking of RM Pola, 29th March 1941\"","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWatercolour\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e10 x 14 1\/2 inches (25250 x 36 cm)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSigned, lower right\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed, lower left\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFramed in a wash-and-line mount and gold frame\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSOLD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven by the standards of Eric Tufnell, a Royal Navy officer, this painting shows exceptional levels of detail and quality.
