專家說明
It has been suggested that this figure may be Napoléon, 2nd Duke of Montebello, although we have not been able to confirm this.
Fabre was tutored by Jacques-Louis David, and won the French Academy's Rome Prize in 1787. He spent most of his life in Italy, first in Rome and from 1793, in Florence. Fabre is best known for painting portraits, patronised by the British on the Grand Tour, but he also continued to paint history pictures and landscapes.
