At more than six minutes in length, its electric intensity forced radio to abandon the three-minute single. Lyrically, the song offers a portrait of a woman’s fall from grace and subsequent social isolation. Dylan’s illustration provides an equally astute visual counterpart to the song’s fallen subject, modelled on Paul Delaroche's 1840 painting of a slouching and defeated Napoleon Bonaparte at Fontainebleau, reflecting the lyrics, ‘You used to be so amused \/ At Napoleon in rags’. Colour is used unmistakably to project this image of grandeur now gone: his cheeks and knees are flushed and muddied, and his once resplendent coat now appears faded and discoloured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst album release: \u003cem\u003eHighway 51 Revisited\u003c\/em\u003e, 1965\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bob Dylan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59039640486262,"sku":null,"price":2450.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0524\/2775\/1621\/files\/BDYLikeARollingStone_0_jpg.webp?v=1792346126","url":"https:\/\/www.smolenskygallery.com\/products\/bob-dylan-like-a-rolling-stone-2026","provider":"Smolensky Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
