[Bottom left:] To the Viceroy.
This exceptional, museum-quality historical document features an authentic handwritten signature from Emperor Napoleon I, dated April 12, 1809, at the dawn of the War of the Fifth Coalition. Addressed affectionately to his stepson and Viceroy of Italy, Eugène de Beauharnais, the brief military directive orders the immediate deployment of General Vial to the command of Venice upon the outbreak of hostilities. The beautifully preserved manuscript comes elegantly paired alongside a classic portrait engraving of the Emperor, professionally presented within a striking, double-matted gold gilt frame. It represents a premier acquisition opportunity for serious collectors of Napoleonic history, capturing a precise moment of intense strategic planning during the height of the First French Empire.
