The art movement followed along on the expansion of the French Empire via Napoleon, and was wildly popular through about c. I have bought the painting among others like 20 years ago at flea market in Geneva I do not know more about the painting nor the artist so please review it closely and if you need more photographs I would be more than happy to provide them to you.
