Les Invalides in Paris, France consists of a complex of buildings in the 7th arrondissement containing museums and monuments, all relating to France’s military history, as well as a hospital and a retirement home for war veterans, the building’s original purpose. It is also the burial site for some of France’s war heroes. The most notable tomb at Les Invalides is that of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) in the crypt under Mansart’s dome. Napoleon was initially interred on Saint Helena, but King Louis-Philippe arranged for his remains to be brought to St Jerome’s Chapel in Paris in 1840. A renovation of Les Invalides took many years, but in 1861 Napoleon was moved to the most prominent location under the dome at Les Invalides.

This is the opening picture for the Napoleon Bonaparte video/graphic novel I’m in the process of putting together in corroboration with MuskularTeeth (the one were we hope to bring in more of you nice people to participate). / This was one of the last pictures I had to finish, so now it is only two three pictures left until I can send it over to Mr Teeth for video editing and sound…. For anyone interested, you can see the rest of the pictures right here POS

Napoleon cast in a statue as Julius Caesar outside the Arenenberg Chateau in Switzerland. Bit sad really. But this megalomaniac based himself on Julius. Yes, rather sad really, especially as Julius tried to crush Gaul/France where Napoleon came from. Interestingly, his nephew, Napoleon the III (who also lived here) erected a statue to Vercingetorix, Julius Caesar’s enemy (hence the pun in the Asterix the Gaul cartoons). Vercingetorix was imprisoned by Julius for five years and then strangled in front of the crowd when Julius needed a publicity boost. Roman Civilization??? I think not! Give me Vercingetorix and his Gauls any day! Napoleon the III

In the gardens of the Palace of Versailles in France, you can wander for days and never tire of the opulent beauty. This marble teahouse, situated on a pond next to a stone grotto, was a favorite entertainment place for Marie Antoinette and her court. Imagine chamber music rising up in the warm evening air, sheep grazing nearby, and food and laughter late into the night.

If any should force entrance he might see there / One buried yet not dead, / Before whose face I no more bow my head / Or bend my knee there; But often in my worn life’s autumn weather / I watch there with clear eyes, / And think how it will be in Paradise / When we’re together. Words by Christina Rossetti Music – Ravel This painting is dedicated to Napoleon Painting using acrylics, wax, graphite and inks – 102×42cm

Bonaparte’s Gulls – these sea birds hang out in active pass feeding on sea food during tidal change. With these birds, the tidal change has ended and they are heading off to their nests. / Thanks to Michael Dunn … our local marine biology expert.

The busy marina in Ajaccio Harbour. Ajaccio is located on the west coast of the island of Corsica. The house in which Napoleon Bonaparte was born in 1769 is preserved, and his associations with the town are everywhere emphasized by street-names and statues. Corsica (French: La Corse; Corsican and Italian: Corsica) is the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea (after Sicily, Sardinia, and Cyprus). It is located west of Italy, southeast of the French mainland, and north of the island of Sardinia. Corsica is the least developed region of France so the Island is mostly unspoiled.

The base of the structure houses the museum of Italian Reunification. / There is a glass elevator at the rear of this structure which takes you to the roof of the structure, known as “The Wedding Cake” for a wonderful panoramic view of Rome. Facing this monument is the Palazzo Bonaparte with a green balcony. The building was named after Letizia Bonaparte, mother of emperor Napoleon I. After Napoleon Bonaparte’s empire fell, Pope Pius VII granted her asylum. She resided in this 17th century palace until she died in 1836.

Bonaparte’s Gulls arrive in Campbell River in the early Fall in huge numbers. They are very social and full of energy. Unlike the much larger resident gulls, the Bonapartes are petite and dainty, but with a grating voice that doesn’t match their svelte appearance. Shot at Campbell River using a Nikon D700 and Nikkor 600 mm lens with 1.4 teleconverter. Processed in Lightroom 2 and Dynamic Photo HDR.

Nikon D700, Nikkor 600 mm lens and 1.4 teleconverter.
