"General Bonaparte with His Military Staff in Egypt" is an oil painting by the French artist Jean-Léon Gérôme, completed in 1867. The artwork is a historical genre painting that depicts Napoleon Bonaparte during his military campaign in Egypt, which lasted from 1798 to 1801. The painting is notable for its detailed representation of the figures, the Egyptian landscape, and the dramatic sky, which reflects Gérôme's academic style and his interest in Orientalism—a trend among European artists that was characterized by the depiction of Eastern scenes and themes.

In the painting, Bonaparte is shown mounted on a camel, surrounded by his officers and local guides, as they traverse the Egyptian desert. The composition captures a moment of contemplation, with the vast expanse of the desert stretching out before them, emphasizing the challenges faced by the French army in an unfamiliar and harsh environment. Gérôme's meticulous attention to historical accuracy in the uniforms and equipment, as well as his portrayal of the physiognomy and expressions of the characters, contribute to the painting's narrative quality.

The work reflects Gérôme's fascination with the exotic and the historical, which was common among European artists of the time. It also serves as a commentary on France's imperial ambitions and the impact of Napoleon's campaigns on the wider world. "General Bonaparte with His Military Staff in Egypt" is part of Gérôme's broader oeuvre, which includes a number of works set in the Middle East and North Africa, and it exemplifies the artist's skill in blending historical subject matter with the academic painting techniques of the 19th century.

The painting is held in a private collection and has been exhibited in various art institutions around the world. It continues to be studied for its artistic merit, as well as its place within the context of 19th-century French painting and the broader discourse of Orientalism in European art.
