Napoleon I (1769-1821), French Emperor from 1804 to 1815. The portrait from which this print derives was painted in April 1815, during the '100 days' between Napoleon's return from Elba and the Battle of Waterloo. The print itself was published soon after the Battle of Waterloo. In this sense the print incorporates both the period of Napoleon's final hopes and the subsequent end of his military career.

Allegory either responding to or forecasting victories for Napoleon against the British. A portrait of the young Napoleon (around the time of his Italian campaign) is carried aloft by angels looking down on Envy in chains. Engraving by Victor Marie Picot (1744-1802), printmaker who spent nearly thirty years in England running a print-selling business in St. Martin's Lane. In 1790 he returned to France and set up businesss in Abbeville and then Paris. This large patriotic engraving is a departure from the gentle female figures in classical dress that dominated his production while in partnership with Delattre in London.
