This notebook was inspired by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres' "Napoléon Ier sur le trône impérial" or "Sa majesté l'empereur des Français sur son trône".

Napoleon Bonaparte became Emperor of the French with the senatus-consulte of May 18, 1804. The sumptuous coronation ceremony took place a few months later, on December 2, 1804, at Notre-Dame de Paris. For the occasion, Napoleon donned several costumes, including the grand habillement worn at the coronation. The young painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780-1867) portrayed him in this costume, which included a purple velvet coat studded with gold bees, in 1806.

Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (1780-1867)

Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (1780-1867)

With a sculptor, ornamentalist and miniaturist father, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres grew up in an environment conducive to the development of his talents as a draftsman. He began his studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Toulouse, and perfected his skills with the painter Jacques-Louis David. The latter introduced her to the neoclassical movement, a movement that would inspire her throughout her life. His painting "Les Ambassadeurs d'Agamemnon" earned him the Prix de Rome in 1801. A few years after this success, the painter continued his teaching at the Villa Médicis. His works were the subject of numerous criticisms in Paris and forced him to extend his stay in Italy. It was only in 1824 that his painting, the "Vow of Louis XIII", became known for his painting.
