EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Parmenion, a prominent figure from the 19th-century French Empire. The image is part of a collection called "Cartes de tete d'un jeu au portrait de l'Empire" created in 1811 by Gatteaux and currently housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque Nationale de France. Parmenion, depicted in this neoclassical masterpiece, exudes an air of authority and wisdom. His stern gaze and regal attire command attention, reflecting his significant role within the empire's history. The artist, Nicolas Marie Gatteaux (1751-1832), skillfully captures Parmenion's essence through delicate watercolor strokes and intricate woodcut techniques. The playing card motif adds an intriguing layer to this portrait. Parmenion's portrayal as a playing card suggests that he was not only influential but also strategic in shaping the empire's destiny. This artistic choice highlights his importance within the political landscape of France during that time. As we delve into this historical gem found at the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, we are transported back to a period defined by grandeur and intellectual pursuits. This fine art print serves as a testament to both Gatteaux's mastery as an artist and Parmenion's enduring legacy within French history.
