Did you know
Napoleon actually crossed the Alps on a sure-footed mule in fine weather; he demanded to be shown calm upon a fiery horse, idealised rather than accurate.
The Story
Napoleon Crossing the Alps is a series of five oil on canvas equestrian portraits of Napoleon Bonaparte painted by the French artist Jacques-Louis David between 1801 and 1805.
Initially commissioned by the King of Spain, the composition shows a strongly idealized view of the real crossing that Napoleon and his army made along the Alps through the Great St Bernard Pass in May 1800.
