Napoleon on a Horse

3D Model

Piotr Michałowski (1800–1855) created a model (probably made of plaster) for this figurine between 1832 and 1835 in Paris while being part of the circle of the Nicolas–Toussaint Charlet’s studio, at that time – as the painter’s daughter will later put it – “a real hotbed of Bonapartism”.
