This unique showcase aims to deepen friendship and cultural understanding between the two nations by presenting a lesser-known facet of Napoleon Bonaparte's life.

The exhibition provides a comprehensive look at Napoleon's multifaceted life, illustrating how his appreciation for art and beauty intertwined with his leadership.
