Answer:

B. Napoloeon as a powerful military leader and statesman

Step-by-step explanation:

More than just a piece of art, this painting is a political promotion. If you look carefully, David portrayed Napoleon in full body, with a clear and strong facial expression, but most importantly, a man who can't be shaken up, and someone who maintains the calm. As a political promotion, this painting is used to show Napoleon skills as a governor, and show to the french people who was their emperor. A great leader!
