Back

zu Tilsit im Pavillon auf dem Nieman am 26 Junius 1807.

bei Remnoni in Wien [n.d., c.1807].
Stipple. 260 x 205mm (10¼ x 8"), large margins. Some foxing.
A propaganda portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte standing between Alexander I of Austria and Friedrich Wilhelm III of Prussia, clasping their hands, as they agreed the Treaties of Tilsit in 1807. The exchange looks friendly: Alexander said afterwards ''Never did I love any man as I loved that man''; however Napoleon had just appropriated half of Prussia's territory.
