EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Bonaparte in 1792 as a frequenter of a six-sous restaurant in Paris" transports us back to the vibrant streets of 18th-century France. The image, captured through a colour lithograph by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century, depicts Napoleon Bonaparte himself immersed in the bustling atmosphere of a popular eatery. Seated at one of the tables adorned with flickering candles and surrounded by fellow diners, Bonaparte exudes an air of authority and military prowess. His presence commands attention as he sits confidently amidst the political and social elite who frequent these establishments. This particular scene is based on an original watercolour by Eric Pape and was created as an illustration for William Milligan Sloane's book "The Life of Napoleon Bonaparte". It offers us a glimpse into the private life of this iconic figure, showcasing his penchant for mingling with common folk despite his elevated status. Through this evocative artwork, we are transported to a time when Parisian restaurants served as meeting places for intellectuals, politicians, and revolutionaries alike. The richly detailed interiors capture both the grandeur and intimacy that defined these spaces during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded not only of Napoleon's influential role in history but also how even great leaders found solace within humble settings such as six-sous restaurants.
