EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Farewell of Napoleon I and Alexander I after the Peace of Tilsit. Painted by Gioacchino Giuseppe Serangeli, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 351x510 cm and is housed in the prestigious Château de Versailles in France. The scene depicts a significant agreement to end hostilities between Russia and France, with both leaders standing on a boat as they bid each other farewell. The peace treaty also included provisions to bar British goods from Europe, reflecting the political climate of that time. Napoleon Bonaparte, known for his military prowess and leadership skills, stands tall beside Alexander Pavlovich. Their expressions convey a mix of determination, respect, and perhaps even a hint of sadness at parting ways. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate tapestry design to the realistic portrayal of these historical figures. This masterpiece serves as a reminder not only of their meeting but also symbolizes diplomacy amidst conflict. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to July 9th, 1807 – witnessing an important chapter in European history unfold before our eyes. It reminds us that even amidst war and partitioning struggles, there can be moments where peace prevails through dialogue and negotiation.
