[Napoleon Bonaparte.]
Charlet Pinx.t. S.W. Reynolds Grav. du Roi d'Ang.re sculp.t.
à Paris chez Schroth Editeur rue St Honoré No 353 bis London published february 1829 by Rittner, 8 Surrey St., Strand.
Rare mezzotint. 385 x 290mm (15 x 11½") very large margins. Publisher's blindstamp below image, some surface soiling.
Full-length portrait of Napoleon, standing, one hand inside his waistcoat, in a landscape, probably St Helena. The artist, Nicolas-Toussaint Charlet (1792-1845), was originally a soldier (he distinguished himself in the defence of Clichy in 1814) before losing his commission upon the restoration of the monarchy and turning to painting. He specialised in Napoleonic scenes, which made him popular with the opposition under the Restoration and influential in the propagation of a mythic view of the Napoleonic era. Engraved by the leading British printmaker S.W. Reynolds, who also worked in Paris.
Whitman 204, unrecorded state between i and ii. Ex: Collection of The Hon. Christopher Lennox-Boyd.
