Acrylic on canvas, 26 x 16 cm. (2022)
Narcissistic historical personalities are covered in mythologies created by
themselves and their entourage. Here, the artist shifts this towards the absurd:
instead of depicting Napoleon fully clothed, standing heroically in the windy island
of St Helena looking out towards his homeland, he's on a tropical Island in bathing
trunks, after getting his first tattoo.
