French Grisaille (Grey) Tapestry Portrait of Napoleon Bicorne Hat and Greatcoat
France, circa 1920s
Capture a piece of French history with this exquisite Grisaille (Grey) Tapestry Portrait of Napoleon, dating back to the 1920s. In this finely detailed depiction, Napoleon is portrayed wearing his iconic bicorne hat, tilted to the side in his signature style, adding to his legendary persona. The hat's distinctive tilt not only contributed to his iconic image but also served a practical purpose, offering him a clear line of sight, especially in the heat of battle.
Draped in his renowned open gray "redingote" or "greatcoat," adorned with numerous medals, Napoleon's presence exudes authority and grandeur. Measuring 7.5 inches wide by 11 inches high, the tapestry is elegantly framed in a silver gilt frame, measuring 8.5 inches wide by 12 inches high, enhancing its visual appeal.
This diminutive yet powerful portrait encapsulates the essence of Napoleon's legacy and the rich history of France, making it a captivating addition to any collection of historical artifacts or art connoisseur's display.
