The richly colored central image is framed by an elaborate gilt border with repeating Empire-style motifs, creating a striking and elegant presentation.

Measuring approximately 3.2 inches in diameter, this piece was clearly made as a decorative cabinet or souvenir plate rather than functional tableware. The reverse displays a green imperial eagle and wreath emblem associated with Napoleonic imagery, used decoratively rather than as a factory mark.

Likely produced in France or continental Europe in the late 19th to early 20th century during the height of Napoleonic revival collecting, this plate reflects the era’s fascination with military history and heroic imperial iconography.

A wonderful addition to a collection of Napoleonic memorabilia, miniature porcelain, or historical decorative arts. Ideal for display in a small stand or shadow box.
