Unknown bust

[mickc22]

got given this at a show some time ago
so long ago in fact that I cannot remember who they said it was
any ideas?

 

[Dragonsreach]

French Marshal Napoleonic period.
Neither Marshall Murat, Ney, St Cyr nor Poniatowski.
Possibly Davout? But given that he\'s wearing a Hussars Pelisse and Dolmen I\'m not sure.

 

[Farin]

my best guess: british naval officer from the turn of the18th to19th century (napoleonic wars )

 

[Dragonsreach]

Sorry Farin completly wrong uniform.

@dragonsreach

you´re sure the bust is a french marshall ?
it was my first idea but somehow the uniform looks british to me

by the wayx :damned you were faster

 

[Dragonsreach]

Yes The Collar is definitley French Napoleonic period laurels and not British.
British Naval officers uniforms were lapel fronted and not braided.
Like so:-

 

[Farin]

thanks for the clarification Dragonsreach.i

i´ll remember it for the next time

 

[mickc22]

yeah, I\'m pretty sure they said he was French,
for the life of me I can\'t remember the company either, it was from a show in Gravesend, thought it was El Greco, but there\'s nothing like it on their site

 

[mickc22]

it\'s ok, the guys at PF know who he is


General Antoine-Louis-Charles LaSalle

Looks like a company starts with a V (Veridian) ??? model. I have a few with that plith...
Have to go thorough boxes to see for sure will get back
