Napoleon

The National Gallery of Art's highlight exhibit is French works. I often wonder how much of our mass media mindset is influenced by these works. Maybe Napoleon only stuck his hand in his vest just this once. This portrait is almost life sized!

There were other French paintings by Matisse, Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec. In the same collect, a couple by Picasso and Van Gough.
