Mourning Napoleon Scene Amid Battlefield Moonlight
A mournful night scene unfolds as Napoleon and his dying friend are surrounded by the Old Guard. Music swells with a requiem then triumphant airs, while Napoleon remains unmoved by victory. Remarks on theology and wisdom mingle with reflections on art, science, and human frailty.
