EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Mademoiselle Du Colombier - Napoleon's First Love" from the late 18th to early 19th century. The engraving, created by Eric Pape after a portrait in the Chateau Colombier, beautifully captures Caroline du Colombier (born 1761), who held a significant place in Napoleon Bonaparte's heart. As one of his earliest loves, Mademoiselle Du Colombier played an influential role in shaping Napoleon's life before he became Emperor of France. This monochrome image exudes elegance and mystery as it transports us back to a time when love stories unfolded against the backdrop of political turmoil. The detailed engraving allows us to appreciate every delicate feature of this enigmatic lady. Her gaze is both alluring and introspective, hinting at the complex emotions she may have felt for the ambitious general who would soon become known as Boney or Emperor Napoleon. Displayed within this print are elements that evoke the essence of eighteenth-century France – a country on the brink of revolution and transformation. It serves as a reminder that even amidst great historical events, personal relationships can shape destinies. This remarkable piece is part of "Life of Napoleon Bonaparte". Volume I by William Milligan Sloane, published by The Century Co. , New York in 1896. As we admire this timeless image captured through Eric Pape's skilled hand, we are reminded once again that history is not just about grand battles but also about intimate connections between individuals whose lives intertwine with destiny itself.
