EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting Napoleon Bonaparte on his voyage into exile on the island of Elba in 1814. The colour litho technique used by S. H. Hebblethwaite brings vibrancy and life to this postcard from the early 20th century. The image showcases a ship sailing through the sea, with Napoleon standing proudly on deck surrounded by sailors. Despite the somber nature of his situation, there is an unexpected touch of humor infused into the scene. It seems that even in exile, Napoleon's charismatic personality shines through as he engages in some lighthearted banter or jest with those around him. The composition beautifully combines historical significance with entertainment value. This postcard serves as both a visual reminder of an important event and a source of amusement for its viewers. It offers a glimpse into the journeyings and travels of one of history's most iconic figures during his time away from power. As we observe this comical yet poignant depiction, we are reminded not only of Napoleon's deposed status but also of his enduring legacy as Emperor and leader. This artwork invites us to reflect on moments that shape our lives while appreciating the lighter side found within them.
