EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Rhine Army and the French Revolution of 1789. In this scene, we witness the remarkable rise of Napoleon I Bonaparte, who would go on to become one of history's most influential figures. The year is 1793, and southern France finds itself under siege by a coalition of powers opposed to the Revolution. At Toulon, it is the English who have occupied the city, posing a significant threat to the revolutionaries. It is here that Captain Bonaparte emerges as a key player in this tumultuous period. With his exceptional leadership skills and strategic brilliance, he takes command of the artillery responsible for besieging Toulon. The artist Jacques Marie Gaston Onfray de Breville, known as JOB (1858-1931), beautifully depicts this intense moment with great attention to detail. His illustration showcases Bonaparte fearlessly leading his troops into battle against their English adversaries. In this historic clash between two powerful forces, it becomes evident that victory will ultimately belong to Captain Bonaparte and his army. This triumph at Toulon marks an important turning point in Napoleon's career and sets him on a path towards becoming Emperor of France. This stunning print serves as both a testament to Napoleon's military prowess during these turbulent times and as an artistic masterpiece capturing an iconic moment in history.
