EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and opulence of the Imperial Banquet in the Grand Salon of the Tuileries Palace. The occasion was none other than the momentous marriage between Napoleon I and Marie-Louise of Austria on April 2nd, 1810. Engraved by Charles Normand and colored by Pierre Francois Leonard Fontaine, this exquisite piece showcases their exceptional talent. The scene is set within a lavishly decorated interior, adorned with intricate details that reflect the wealth and power of the French Empire. The salon is filled with distinguished guests from all corners of Europe, gathered to celebrate this union between two influential figures. Marie-Louise, radiant in her wedding attire, sits beside Napoleon at a beautifully set table overflowing with sumptuous delicacies fit for an emperor's feast. As they dine amidst golden candelabras and ornate furnishings, one can only imagine the lively conversations and joyous atmosphere that permeates throughout. This image not only immortalizes a significant historical event but also serves as a testament to Napoleon's desire to solidify his empire through strategic alliances. It offers us a glimpse into an era where power was displayed through extravagant celebrations such as these. Preserved in France's Bibliotheque Nationale archives, this remarkable artwork invites us to step back in time and witness firsthand the splendor of an imperial banquet held in honor of love and political ambition.
