Self-Portrait in Rome, 1832. Creator: Horace Vernet (French, 1789-1863)
Self-Portrait in Rome, 1832. Vernet stands before the Villa Medici, seat of the French Academy in Rome, where he was director from 1829 to 1835. The palette, brushes, and maulstick on the stepladder hint at his talent for painting large canvases. The artists sideward glance, disheveled hair, and burning cigarette lend him a romantic aura. The recipient of numerous commissions for military paintings, Vernet was patronized by Jerome Bonaparte (the youngest brother of Napoleon) and later taught at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts
