EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait, created around 1780 by Dominique Vivant Denon, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable individual. Denon was not only an accomplished artist but also a prominent French administrator and diplomat. The pastel print measures 54.5x45.5 cm and is currently housed in the Musee Denon in Chalon-sur-Saone, France. Denon's connection to Napoleon Bonaparte is particularly intriguing; he accompanied the renowned leader during his expedition to Egypt and later served as Director General of the Imperial Museums. His role in organizing the Louvre and managing artworks pillaged during Napoleonic campaigns cannot be understated. In this self-portrait, Denon presents himself as a young man with an air of confidence and sophistication. Sporting a fashionable hat atop his head and adorned with an elegant wig, he exudes charm and style. A subtle smile graces his lips, hinting at both intelligence and wit. The image captures Denon's youthful energy while also showcasing his refined taste for fashion - characteristics that align with those of a foppish dandy from that era. This print allows us to appreciate not only Denon's artistic talent but also his multifaceted personality. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of Baron Denon's significant contributions to art history through both his creative endeavors and administrative achievements – forever immortalized within this exquisite self-portrait.
