EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of "The surrender of Madrid" during the Napoleonic War. Painted by Antoine Jean Gros in 1810, it depicts Napoleon I receiving the formal surrender of Madrid on 4 December 1808. The painting, housed at Château de Versailles in France, showcases Gros' mastery in capturing both the grandeur and intensity of this significant event. In this oil on canvas masterpiece, we witness a scene filled with tension and defeat. The military camp is bustling with soldiers from both sides as they gather to witness the capitulation of Madrid. King Joseph Bonaparte stands beside his brother Napoleon I, symbolizing their dominance over Spain. Gros skillfully portrays the aftermath of battle through his use of vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. From the weary expressions on the faces of Spanish soldiers to the triumphant posture of Napoleon I, every element tells a story. This photograph beautifully captures Gros' artwork while adding its own touch through ePhoto Josse's lens. It allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also admire Gros' artistic talent that immortalized this pivotal moment in history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to that fateful day when Madrid surrendered under French rule—a testament to both triumph and tragedy within one frame.
