MUNERET Jean-Désiré, PORTRAIT MINIATURE OF NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, 1806
Fine portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte , miniature painted by Muneret, after the modele of Isabey of 1806. Muneret was a pupil of Jean-Baptiste Jacques Augustin in 1800, then it passed to Jean-Baptiste Isabey's studio. It is doubtless of this period that dates this miniature among which the composition and the touch resume those of the master. The golden(in gold) very elongated ring of the oval is typical miniatures of the Empire.TECHNIQUE:
