EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic meeting between two influential figures, Napoleon Bonaparte and Alexander I of Russia. Painted by Adolphe Roehn in 1808, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures the essence of the encounter that took place at Niemen on June 25th, 1807. Measuring at an impressive size of 125x152 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Château de Versailles in France. The painting depicts a significant moment when Napoleon and Alexander came together to negotiate an end to hostilities between their nations and establish a ban on British goods throughout Europe. The composition beautifully portrays both leaders aboard a boat floating gracefully along the river. Their expressions convey a sense of seriousness as they engage in diplomatic discussions that would shape European history. This rendezvous became known as the Tilsit Convention, symbolizing an important turning point for France and Russia's relationship during this era. Roehn's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous brushwork and use of vibrant colors, bringing life to each figure portrayed. The historical significance captured within this artwork makes it not only visually stunning but also intellectually stimulating for those who delve into its narrative.
