This file photo taken on April 1, 2021, shows a bust of French Emperor Napoleon I in the museum dedicated to him at Ile-d'Aix where the emperor lived from 8 to 15 July, 1815 before leaving France.
Getting to the remote South Atlantic island where Napoleon died 200 years ago got even harder during the coronavirus pandemic.
So while commemorations of the May 5, 1821 death of the deposed French emperor on British-ruled St Helena are going ahead there, they are not happening with an influx of international visitors that was expected before COVID-19 swept across the world.
