"Portrait Of A Chouan Man, School Of David Royalist Jean-baptiste Wicar Gros Girodet"
Portrait of a man, school of Jean-Louis DAVID, circa 1800 - 1820. This portrait is not signed but the painter could be a student of DAVID: Jean-Baptiste WICAR who made similar portraits. The character represented would be Georges CADOUDAL, famous CHOUAN with impressive stature. The artist was able to capture the melancholy and depth of the model in a style typical of neo-classicism from the very beginning of the 19th century. The painting is painted on a canvas that was previously mounted on a panel. Format: 46 cm x 38 cm
