EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the essence of Jean Baptiste Jules Bernadotte, a remarkable figure in French history. Born in 1763, he was a fearless soldier who played a significant role during the French Revolution and later became Marshal of France under Napoleon Bonaparte. In this portrait, created by Francois Josephe Kinson, we see Bernadotte standing proudly beside a mortar, symbolizing his military prowess and strategic brilliance. His military uniform exudes authority and power as he gazes confidently into the distance. What sets Bernadotte apart from other soldiers is his unexpected journey to becoming Crown Prince of Sweden in 1810. Elected by the Swedish people, he eventually ascended to become King Charles XIV John in 1818. This unique transition from revolutionary soldier to monarch showcases his exceptional leadership skills and adaptability. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to the image, emphasizing both Bernadotte's determination on the battlefield and his transformative impact on European politics. The intricate details captured by Kinson's masterful engraving technique further enhance our understanding of this influential historical figure. As we delve into this nineteenth-century print collector's treasure trove, let us appreciate Jean Baptiste Jules Bernadotte's legacy as an embodiment of courage, ambition, and resilience amidst turbulent times.
