Bonaparte à Toulon is an etching that belongs to the suite AtlasBatt realized within Jacques Norvins' Histoire de Napoleon, published in 1837. Author Jacques Norvins published one of the most comprehensive and influential histories on the life and military career of Napoleon, trought the works of the most important engravers of the time. 14x22 cm. Good conditions except for some yellow halos on the margins. The Battle of Regensburg was part of the Napoleonic Wars, and was fought on April 23, 1809 between the army of the First French Empire led by Napoleon Bonaparte and that of the Austrian Empire led by Charles of Habsburg-Teschen. Scene of the last battle of the Bavarian phase of the 1809 campaign, the brief defense of the city and the installation of a bridge to the east allowed the retreat of the Austrian army towards Bohemia. During the assault, Marshal Jean Lannes led his troops up the stairs near the walls, and Napoleon was wounded in the ankle by a stray artillery shell. The shot had been fired from a great distance and did not cause much damage to the emperor, only causing him a contusion. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
