"Napoleon Bonaparte" is a notable portrait by Andrea Appiani the Elder (1754–1817), an esteemed Italian neoclassical painter. Created in 1805, this artwork is one of the most recognized depictions of Napoleon Bonaparte, the prominent French military leader and emperor, during the height of his power. Appiani, who was appointed as the official painter of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy, was renowned for his mastery in portraying the elegance and grandeur of the Napoleonic era.

The portrait is imbued with the neoclassical aesthetic, reflecting the influence of the Enlightenment and the cultural revival of classical antiquity that was prevalent during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In this work, Appiani captures Napoleon in his coronation robes, a symbol of his authority and the imperial majesty he cultivated. The painting is characterized by its fine detail, balanced composition, and the use of light to emphasize Napoleon's visage, conveying both his political power and the artistic trends of the period.

As a significant piece of historical portraiture, "Napoleon Bonaparte" by Andrea Appiani the Elder holds a place of importance in the study of European art and the visual culture of the Napoleonic era. It not only represents the skill of Appiani as a court painter but also serves as a visual document of the political narratives and iconography associated with one of history's most influential figures. The portrait is often analyzed within the context of Napoleonic propaganda and the role of art in shaping the leader's public image.

Today, the painting is part of a collection that commemorates the Napoleonic period and is frequently referenced in discussions about the relationship between art and power, as well as the legacy of neoclassicism in European portraiture. It continues to be exhibited and studied as a prime example of Appiani's work and the broader artistic movements of his time.
