Galerie du Musée Napoléon

Musée Napoléon · 1804 · Paris : Chez Filhol : de l'Impr. de Gillé fils · 38 pictures

Galerie du Musée Napoléon is a Paris print album of 1804 published by Filhol, reproducing paintings from the Musée Napoléon collection as engravings for a French art-loving public. Its plates are engraved reproductions of old master scenes, many printed sideways on the page, showing crowded multi-figure compositions with architecture, draped robes and dramatic gestures that a designer could use for classical staging, grouping and narrative tableau layouts.
