1812AQ20594Montpellier: l'Imprimerie de Mme. Picot 1812. Single leaf broadside. With the Imperial eagle vignette to head. Early vertical and horizontal folds edges uncut. A trifle browned single small hole touching text without loss of sense. An original example published in Montpelier of the twentieth bulletin of the Grand Armée in Russia. These bulletins were issued by Napoleon in order to communicate progress of his most significant military campaign to date to the French public. Immensely significant propaganda tools these bulletins explained the prevailing conditions; in this case reporting on the French capture of Moscow in the preceding days. Although not the political capital of Russia the city's fall represented a severe blow to defending army. As the bulletin notes 'Moscou est l'entreport de l'Asie et de l'Europe; ses magasins etaient immenses; toutes les maisons etaient approvisionnees de tout pour huit mois'. Somewhat ominously given the benefit of hindsight the bulletin closes somewhat bombastically with a reference to the temperature and the availability of coats and furs: 'La temperature est encore celle de l'automne: le soldat a trouve et trouve beaucoup de pelisses et des fourrures pour l'hiver. Moscou en est le magasin'. Within three months in the now infamous XXIXe. Bulletin Napoleon was to report the full extent of the calamitous failure of the Russian campaign - blaming his military failure almost entirely upon the weather. . Dimensions 460 x 360 mm. l'Imprimerie de Mme. Picot unknown

1870List36104New York City: Sarony 680 Broadway 1870. Albumen print on original mount with printed studio imprint. 2 ½ x 4 inches. Very good condition; strong tonal contrast. Studio portrait of Grace Greenwood 1823–1904 the pen name of Sara Jane Clarke Lippincott: journalist poet lecturer and one of the most widely read women writers of the nineteenth century. Greenwood was a committed abolitionist contributing to antislavery newspapers including the National Anti-Slavery Standard and using her national platform to denounce slavery and support the Union cause. During the Civil War she reported from Washington D.C. advocating emancipation and commenting directly on federal policy. Her writings and lectures frequently addressed women’s legal and political inequality and she became an outspoken supporter of woman suffrage. Greenwood also traveled in Europe as a foreign correspondent publishing travel narratives and political commentary. A popular public lecturer she addressed audiences across the United States on reform literature and women’s advancement becoming one of the era’s most visible female voices.<br /> <br /> Offered here is a portrait of Greenwood taken by Broadway photographer Napoleon Sarony. The photograph shows Greenwood later in her career posed thoughtfully with her head resting upon her hand a book held in the other—a studio convention of the period used to convey authority. Sarony’s 680 Broadway studio was known for photographing leading literary and theatrical figures; this example situates Greenwood among the cultural elite of post–Civil War New York. We find no other examples of this portrait in commerce. Sarony, 680 Broadway unknown
