(Napoleon Rising from His Tomb) "Je désire que mes Cendres reposent sur les bords de la Seine, au milieu de ce Peuple Français que j'ai tant aimé" Testament de l'EMPEREUR NAPOLÉON; Ste Hélène, 15 Avril 1821.

This aquatint, engraved by Jean-Pierre-Marie Jazet and based on a painting by Horace Vernet, presents a dramatic and symbolic portrayal of Napoleon, likened to Christ's resurrection. Titled with Napoleon's poignant wish from his last will, "It is my wish that my ashes may repose on the banks of the Seine, in the midst of the French people, whom I have loved so well," this work captures a significant moment in French history and Napoleonic iconography.
