This is a lithograph of General François Horace Bastien Sébastiani, a French military leader and politician. It was made by baron Dominique Vivant Denon, a French art collector, diplomat, and writer, after a painting by French artist François Gérard. The print depicts the General in formal attire, his hand resting on his sword. The lithograph, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a fine example of neoclassical portraiture, capturing the subject's military bearing and stature.
