EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent marble bust of Jerome Bonaparte, the King of Westphalia (1784-1860), represented in Hermes. Created in 1809 by Lorenzo Bartolini (1777-1850) after Joseph Chinard's original design, this masterpiece resides within the Musee du Chateau at Versailles. The intricate carving and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this sculpture. The artist skillfully captures Jerome Bonaparte's regal presence and noble features, immortalizing him for generations to come. With its lifelike representation, one can almost feel the weight of history emanating from this remarkable work. Jerome Bonaparte was not only a member of the illustrious Bonaparte family but also held significant political power as the King of Westphalia. This bust serves as a testament to his influence and legacy during his reign. The choice to depict Jerome Bonaparte in Hermes adds an intriguing element to the artwork. As Mercury/Hermes was known as the messenger god in Greek mythology, it symbolizes communication and diplomacy – qualities that were undoubtedly crucial during Jerome's time as king. Displayed within the grandeur of Versailles, surrounded by other historical treasures, this marble bust stands as a testament to both artistic mastery and historical significance. It is truly a sight to behold for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
