Relief portrait of Napoléon
Antonio Canova - 1809
Canova was a talented sculptor who dedicated his career to reviving the classical style of art, as in this profile of Napoléon as a Roman emperor, wearing a laurel crown. His most famous work is the great reclining nude “Venus Victrix,” for which Pauline Borghese, Napoléon’s favorite sister, posed.
