In 1800, Napoleon Bonaparte and his army crossed the Alps, through the Great Saint-Bernard Pass, on their way to fight the Austrians. French artist Jacques-Louis David painted the general no less than five times. But nobody knew that dozens of Photoshoppers were there too. During the month of August you’ll discover their digital masterpieces every day here on Frogsmoke. Shown above is one of the five original paintings. The fun starts tomorrow!
