Artist

M. Leon and J. Levy

M. Leon and J. Levy is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

M. Leon and J. Levy were photographers who lugged their heavy glass plates into battle zones to catch history in the act. They made Napoleon’s final exile feel like a front-row seat, not a history-book blur. You’ll find their 1867 photograph “The Last Days of Napoleon I” in the Musée de l’Armée, tucked where the real uniforms live, so you can stand eye-to-eye with the emperor’s worn-out boots.
