Portret van generaal Changarnier 1848

This lithograph by Marie-Alexandre Alophe, created in 1848, depicts General Nicolas Changarnier, a prominent French military figure. The portrait captures Changarnier in his military uniform, standing against a backdrop of a city scene, likely a reference to his military career. Alophe's meticulous rendering of the general's features and uniform highlights the artist's skills in portraiture and his ability to capture the dignity and authority of his subject. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a significant piece of 19th-century French art and a testament to the role of military leaders in shaping the nation's history.
