Huge Low Poly Art Sculptures And Installations By David Mesguich

David Mesguich, a street artist and globetrotter, makes large installations that leaves where everyone can see them, in the public spaces of countries like France, Belgium and Poland.

Huge installations that are designed to shake the social consciousness, as in the case of his latest project “Stateless“, a series where the protagonists are migrants who fight against the borders and the Holy Europe watching from the sideline.

hello ⚘️ I really love to say that napoleon bonaparte is very handsome and pretty I don't care about his height 🥰🥰 and that because hate Josephine because her cheating hoe could she doing that his such baby 😢😢

Like Julius Caesar, I don’t think Napoléon Bonaparte would be considered handsome by our society’s standard. Though he looked quite sicklish with a bit of yellowish complexion in his youth, he became healthier when he became First Consul. He was said to have a charming smile and lively blue-gray eyes (people described his “piercing gaze that went right through you”), an aquiline profile, and Jacques Louis David was fascinated with Napoléon’s “classically structured face”. He was considered handsome in his time I believe.

If you wish to know how he looked like, this post is very interesting.

Some actors portraying Napoléon were also quite handsome! My favourite is Daniel Mesguich. Just look at him!

The general belief of Napoléon being short is a pet peeves of mine, because he wasn’t as short as legend as led us to believe. He was actually 1,69 m tall (the equivalent to 5’5), which was the average height for his time. While he was called Le petit caporal (which you can translate as “the little corporal”), it was not meant as a reflection of his stature but more a term of affection by his soldiers. Napoléon also liked to surround himself by his troops and his guards, which he chose to be very tall men, so of course he would look very short in comparison. Alas, we can also thank our English friends for this belief as well. I believe it was largely the work of a British cartoonist who caricatured Napoléon as a small man in the 19th century, and his works were very popular and influential.

As for Napoléon and Joséphine, I do love their relationship a lot, even though it wasn’t an ideal one. Joséphine seemed bemused by his love for her at first, she used him because she needed him, and she did cheat on him and they almost divorced in the early years of their marriage but they stayed together and settled into a more mature relationship where Joséphine grew up to have a genuine affection for him and Napoléon always loved Joséphine, even if he had to divorce her, though that didn’t stop him from cheating on her multiple times. Like I said, their relationship wasn’t perfect, but I still love them!

This is probably the casting of Napoleon that looks the most like him. I was shocked when I first saw it.

“Graffiti Art in Prison” by Martha Cooper & David Mesguich in Florence, Italy

In the early days of 2021, a personal encounter with the prison system opened doors to a unique opportunity. Gabriella Cianciolo, a professor at the University of Cologne, extended an invitation to become a speaker in the interdisciplinary “Graffiti Art in Prison” project, aptly named GAP. Eagerly embracing the chance, our protagonist proposed taking the initiative a step further by organizing a workshop within the confines of Florence Sollicciano jail.

because Phoenix isn't just too old, he's also too serious, too stoic. If your young Napoleon doesn't have some goofy gremlin energy then what's the point?
