Description
Undated print depicting Napoleon Bonaparte greeting French troops and citizens on his return from the Island of Elba on March 7 1815. Bonaparte (1769 - 1821) was forced to abdicate as Emperor and exiled to the Mediterranean island under the terms of the Treaty of Fontainebleau signed on April 11 1814. He stayed on Elba for 300 days before escaping back to France in February 1815. The 5th Regiment was sent to intercept him and made contact just south of Grenoble on March 7. Napoleon is said to have approached the regiment alone, dismounted his horse and, when in gunshot range, shouted: "Here I am. Kill your Emperor, if you wish." The soldiers responded with "Vive L'Empereur!" and marched with Napoleon to Paris where Louis XVIII fled. Engraving by George Sanders (1837 - 1866), based on a painting by Charles Steuben (1788 - 1856).
