The dispaly in the room emphasises the political and artistic significance of the image of the eagle as a symbol of the Empire style. Portraits of Napoleon and Alexander I and the painting Napoleon and Alexander I Bid Farewell after the Peace of Tilsit on 9 July 1807 offer an insight into the historical context of the time. Exhibited here are the banners and standards of the Russian and French armies, dress weapons and gilded bronze candelabra. (Pierre Philippe Thomire, Paris, first quarter of the 19th century).
