Napoleon's travelling equipment
As a seasoned campaigner Napoleon travelled with every possible necessity for eating, dressing, grooming, writing, surveying, map-making, dental and physical health. These items, created in an elegant, pared-down style, usually in silver gilt, were packed with ingenuity into numbered mahogany boxes or necessaires, many of the works fitting inside others.
