Playmobil Napoleon 70679
Figure of the famous French general and emperor Napoleon Bonaparte in military uniform and cocked hat. The set includes his horse named "Le Vizir".
The famous
general and French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte was born in Corsica in
1769. Due to his military talent, he quickly rose through the ranks of
the army during the French Revolution and eventually came to power
through a coup. In 1804, he was crowned emperor in a ceremony at Notre Dame Cathedral. During his reign, Napoleon carried out many reforms that continue to shape France's state structures to this day. After
the disastrous result of the campaign against Russia, Napoleon's power
weakened and he was exiled first to the island of Elba and finally to
Saint Helena, where he died in 1821. Now, the French emperor becomes a
PLAYMOBIL figure. He comes wearing a military uniform, a double-breasted hat, white trousers and black riding boots, sitting on his white horse. The
PLAYMOBIL Napoleon figure is inspired by the painting "The Battle of
Austerlitz" by Francois Pascal Simon Gérard (1770-1837), and features
the Emperor on his horse, "Le Vizir".
