Set of Antique Glazed Ceramic Tiles Depicting Napoleon
About the Item
Eight 6-inch antique glazed ceramic tiles depicting Napoleon, 18th century French Emperor and military figure. Likely the central part of what was once a larger panel, these tiles are hand-painted in vibrant colours and detail, illustrating an adaption of Napoleon and his armies during the French Revolution.
The frontmost figure depicts the famed Napoleon Bonaparte, wearing his signature side to side bicorne hat, leading a procession of horses and an army of French foot soldiers.
Dating from the late 19th / early 20th century, it is a stunning antique tile panel for a home, perfect for placement on an interior wall as a decorative art feature.

Napoleon
Napoleon Bonaparte (1769 – 1821) is considered one of the most influential military leaders in history. He rose to notoriety during the French Revolution of 1789 -1799 and the Revolutionary Wars that followed, transforming military organisation and training. He served as First Consul of the French Republic from 1799 to 1804 and then as French Emperor Napoleon I from 1804-1814 and again briefly in early 1815 before his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo on 18th June 1815.
