EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning poster created for The Century Magazine in 1895. Titled "Napoleon in Egypt" this color lithograph was masterfully crafted by Eugene Grasset, a renowned French artist of the late 19th century. The poster was originally designed to promote Professor Sloane's biography, "Life of Napoleon" published by The Century Company in New York. In this artwork, we see an exquisite portrayal of Napoleon Bonaparte during his time in Egypt. With an art nouveau touch and intricate details, Grasset captures the essence of the Egyptian campaign led by the legendary emperor. Standing tall on his majestic horse, Napoleon points towards the grand pyramids that dominate the background. The equestrian scene exudes power and leadership as Napoleon confidently holds his sabre while adorned with a cockade symbolizing his authority. This striking portrait not only highlights Napoleon's military prowess but also pays homage to the rich history and culture of ancient Egypt. Grasset's artistic brilliance shines through every brushstroke, creating a visual masterpiece that seamlessly blends historical elements with contemporary artistry. This remarkable print is now part of a private collection and serves as a testament to both Grasset's talent and Napoleon's enduring legacy.
