Napoleon's two paintings depicting this moment were made by Jacques-Louis David and Paul Delaroche. The two paintings, while depicting the same moment when Napoleon is crossing the Alps, have different meanings and provoke different sensations in the viewer.

David's painting depicts Napoleon extremely admirable, he looks strong, happy and unbeatable on his horse. The painting gives a sense of achievement as Napoleon seems victorious, haughty and a great leader.
