Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon's towering bust stands majestically, its creation a mere ten years after his monumental passing. Commissioned in 1829 by Alexander Murray, a Scottish nobleman and politician who revered Napoleon, the sculpture embodies the classical style of Roman emperors. As if borne aloft on eagle's wings to Olympus, the realm of ancient gods and demigods, Napoleon appears elevated to a plane of divine authority. The laurel wreath and shield, symbols of unyielding power, reinforce his regal presence.
