The post-mortem examination report on French general and statesman Napoleon Bonaparte is set to go on public display for first time later this month.
The document detailing the first emperor of France’s cause of death will go on show as part of a wider exhibition arranged by the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) examining changing views of death throughout history.
The exhibition, in Edinburgh, is expected to encourage visitors to consider how an acceptance of death in the past has given way to an unwillingness to accept it in the present and aims to show how unprepared we are now when our time comes.
