Napoleon's Hidden Hand
Many of the most famous portraits of Napoleon portray him with one hand tucked out of sight, but why did he do that?
The hand-in-waistcoat is a gesture commonly found in portraits during the 18th and 19th centuries and also in mid-19th century photography. This pose was often associated with Napoleon Bonaparte, due to its use in many portraits made by his artist, Jacques-Louis David. The pose was used as a sign, that the sitter was from the upper class and often associated with nobility.
