First Empire Medallion Roundel

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a portrait presumed to be Joseph Bonaparte, the older brother of Napoleon Bonaparte. Created by Jacques Reattu in the 18th or 19th century, this piece is executed with pierre noire on vellum, giving it a unique texture and depth. The image showcases Joseph's profile in a medallion-like roundel, emphasizing his distinguished features. Joseph Bonaparte (1768-1844) was an influential figure during the First Empire era in France. Despite being overshadowed by his famous younger brother, he held significant positions such as King of Naples and Spain during Napoleon's reign. This portrait offers a glimpse into Joseph's character and presence. The small size of this artwork adds to its charm, measuring only 9.5 cm in diameter. It is currently housed at Musee Reattu in Arles, France, where visitors can appreciate its historical significance. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to the time when Joseph Bonaparte played an essential role within one of history's most renowned families. Through Reattu's skillful execution and attention to detail, we are able to connect with Joseph on a personal level despite the passage of centuries.
