"Napoleon Bonaparte on the Gangway of HMS Bellerophon after Reaching Plymouth Sound" is a historical painting by Sir Charles Lock Eastlake, an eminent English painter, gallery director, and president of the Royal Academy. Created in 1815, the artwork captures a pivotal moment in European history, depicting the defeated French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte as he stands on the gangway of the British warship HMS Bellerophon, having surrendered to the British following his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo.

The painting is significant for its portrayal of Napoleon at a time of personal and political transition, as he was about to embark on his final exile to the remote island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean. Eastlake's composition presents Napoleon in a contemplative and dignified manner, reflecting the public fascination with the Emperor's fate and the broader European interest in his character and legacy.

Eastlake's attention to detail and his ability to convey the emotional gravity of the scene are noteworthy. The painting is also a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the nuances of light, texture, and atmosphere, contributing to the dramatic effect of the historical narrative. As a work of art, it offers insight into the Romantic era's preoccupation with heroic downfall and the complexities of power and defeat.

The painting is held in high regard for its historical accuracy and artistic merit, and it remains an important work in the study of 19th-century British art. It is part of the collection of the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London, where it continues to be studied and appreciated by scholars, art enthusiasts, and the general public interested in the Napoleonic era and its cultural representations.
