Portrait of a man, presumably <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlo_Maria_Buonaparte" class="extiw" title="w:Carlo Maria Buonaparte">Carlo Maria Buonaparte</a> (1746-1785), father of Napoleon Bonaparte.<br>
This is one of few portraits of the father of Napoleon. In this half–length posthumous (?) portrait, Carlo Maria (1746-1785) is dressed as a gentleman of the Ancien Régime with powdered wig and a coat laced with gold.
