Aim: How was Napoleon finally defeated by the

European coalitions formed against him?

Do Now: Review last night’s

homework with your partner.

Continental System- Napoleon attempted to hurt the

British economy by eliminating it from continental

European affairs after France’s defeat at Trafalgar.

Peninsular War- Spain revolted against French control and

fought a guerilla war against French forces. Napoleon suffered

major defeats in Spain and eventually lost control of the

peninsula.

Francisco de Goya’s painting, Tres de Mayo (1814), which depicts French soldiers

executing civilians defending Madrid, would help make the uprising of May 2–3,

1808, a touchstone event of the Peninsular War. Notice how the painting

emphasizes the man in white striking a Christ-like pose.

Invasion of Russia- Napoleon decided to invade Russia after

it’s withdrawal from the Continental System. The invasion

proved to be a major disaster due to the Russian policies of

scorched earth and organized retreats.

Bourbon Restoration as a

Limited Monarchy

Louis XVIII was a monarch of

the House of Bourbon who ruled

as King of France from 1814 to

1824 except for a period in 1815

known as the Hundred Days.

Until his accession to the throne

of France, Louis held the title

of Count of Provence as brother

of King Louis XVI. When the

young Louis XVII, Louis XVI's

son, died in prison in June 1795,

Louis XVIII succeeded his

nephew as King.

Bonaparte Crossing

the Alps (also called

Napoleon Crossing

the Alps, despite the

existence of another,

more well-known

painting with that

name) is an 1848–

1850 oil-on-canvas

portrait of Napoleon

Bonaparte, by French

artist Hippolyte

Delaroche.

Delaroche's picture of Napoleon crossing the Alps

Unconscious of the dreary wastes around,Of sleet that pierces with each fitful blast,

The icy peaks, the rough and treacherous ground,Huge snow-drifts by the whirlwind's breath amassed,Through which the jaded mule with noiseless tread,

Patient and slow, a certain foothold seeks,By the old peasant-guide so meekly led;

Moves the wan conqueror, with sunken cheeks,O'er heights as cold and lonely as his soul,-The chill lips blandly set, and the dark eyesIntent with fierce ambition's vast control,

Sad, keen and thoughtful of the distant prize;With the imperial robes and warlike steed,

That face ne'er wore such blended might and need!

—H.T. Tuckerman's poem, describing Delaroche's portrayal.

David's

version of the

scene differs a

Delaroche's

idea of

Napoleon's

crossing of the

Alps.
