[Young man sitting in armchair]
DN del. 1821
Lithograph and tintstone, printed area 150 x 120mm (6 x 4¾"), with very large margins.
Portrait by Baron Vivant Denon (1747-1825), French museum director, artist, collector, archaeologist and diplomat. Denon had a brilliant career under the ancien regime, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Diderot, Voltaire, and Robespiere. He followed Napoleon on his campaign in Egypt, making over 150 sketches (now in the British Museum) which, reproduced in his book 'Voyage dans la Basse et la Haute Egypte' (1802), were influential in establishing the Egyptian Revival style in France. In 1802 he was appointed director-general of the Imperial Museums, playing a key role in bringing foreign masterpieces into the Louvre. He played a crucial role as artistic adviser to Napoleon, selecting artworks to requisition and handing out commissions to artists. This print was published in Munich in 1809.
