Napoléon I Eugène Guillaume

This life-size statue was sculpted by Guillaume who was an official artist during the Second Empire. His real career started after winning the Grand Prix de Rome in 1813. After that, he started working as an artist on his own winning many honours and becoming director of the Académie de France in Rome.

This work of his, was commissioned by the Prince Napoleon. He commissioned an architect to build a residence for him, for the atrium he commissioned this piece to Guillaume. In this sculpture, Napoleon I is represented wearing a draped toga and holding the Code Civil, he’s wearing a laurel wreath and has a eagle at his feet.

I make the figures with marble, a resistant material, which allows the figure to be exposed even outdoors and look even more beautiful over the years.

The statue helps people calm down, not impatient, not hasty. It reminds us there are many difficulties and sadness outside but if we just think about all the goodness, just smile and you will feel the life much easier.

Our figures are made by hand using high quality natural marble stone therefor each piece is unique and may slightly be different in shape and color.
