A self portrait of Joseph Ducreux, circa 1790 and one of the first of its kind:
Perhaps a 1790’s version of ‘I’m the man? No, you’re the man bro-heim!’?

I came across this painting while looking at some epic battle paintings.
It's the Cuirassiers Charging The Highlanders At The Battle Of Waterloo by Henri Félix Emmanuel Philippoteaux.
