Napoleon - Original

$960.00

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821), also known as Napoleon I, was a French military leader and emperor who conquered much of Europe in the early 19th century. After seizing political power in France in a 1799 coup d’état, he crowned himself emperor in 1804. Shrewd, ambitious, and a skilled military strategist, he met his Waterloo and was eventually exiled to the remote island of Saint Helena, where he died at age 51. He is noted for his quote: “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.” I painted him as a Dogue de Bordeaux a French Mastiff (one with a dark nose). Original work of art.
