This small, anonymous portrait of Jean-François Landriot, dating from before 1864, shows the subject in a formal setting, seated and holding a book. The small size of the image, measuring 95 mm by 55 mm, suggests it was likely part of a larger publication, potentially a collection of Landriot's writings or a biographical work about him. The image's inclusion in such a publication would have served as a visual identifier for readers and collectors. While the artist remains unknown, the portrait is a valuable historical document offering a glimpse into the life and appearance of Jean-François Landriot, a figure whose works were considered significant enough to warrant inclusion in this publication.
