EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving, titled "Consular Coachmanship!!", captures a moment of historical significance and romantic intrigue. Created by William Holland in 1803, this illustrative technique showcases the traditional artistry of the time. In the scene, we see Josephine standing elegantly in a carriage on the left side. The carriage is drawn by four unruly horses, two of which are labeled as a Jacobin and a Royalist. Meanwhile, Napoleon finds himself humiliated after being tossed onto the back of a bull that represents Great Britain or John Bull. His head rests between the upright horns of the bull, symbolizing cuckoldry and possibly alluding to rumors surrounding Josephine's infidelity. The artwork also includes subtle details that add depth to its narrative. A whip lies abandoned on the ground next to the horses while Napoleon's oversized hat is discarded near the bull. Through his words, Napoleon acknowledges his double humiliation: one inflicted by British forces during his campaign in Egypt and another caused by his wife's actions back home in France. This engraved image evokes nostalgia for an era long past with its historic charm and Victorian aesthetic. It offers viewers a glimpse into history through an artistic lens, reminding us of significant events and cultural nuances from centuries ago.
