About the Item
Marble bust of Emperor Napoleon I, depicted in a hermit as per the model by Antoine-Denis CHAUDET (1763-1810), 19th century era.
Chaudet depicted the emperor as an ancient hermit by signing the work below the inscription "Napoléon." It was chosen by Napoleon as his official portrait in sculpture and produced in two sizes, a "first size" and a smaller one intended for the desks of the kingdom's offices or sent as a diplomatic gift.
Ours, by size, is among the smaller specimens but its quality is nonetheless good. To report a small professional restoration to the tip of the nose done by the former owners.
