    This lithograph depicts the idealized profile of a young Greek warrior, wearing an ancient helmet with a tall, finely detailed crest. The regular, serene features of his face fully embody the neoclassical aesthetic so dear to Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson. The lithographic rendering subtly captures the shading of a pencil drawing, particularly in the rendering of the strands of hair and the metallic texture of the helmet.
    Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson (1767–1824), a leading French painter and draftsman of the Neoclassical period, was Jacques-Louis David’s favorite student. A winner of the Prix de Rome, he distinguished himself with a refined style that combined classical ideals with pre-Romantic sensibility. His most famous works include *The Sleep of Endymion*, *Atala at the Tomb*, and a multitude of portraits. Upon his death, his work left a lasting influence on the emerging Romantic generation.
    Jean-Baptiste Edme Lordereau (active c. 1839–1868), a Parisian printer and lithographer based on Rue Saint-Jacques, collaborated with numerous artists to produce lithographs, portraits, and illustrated plates. His prints, often signed “Imp. de Lordereau,” attest to the quality and widespread circulation of lithographic images during the July Monarchy and the Second Empire.
    19th-century lithograph after Anne-Louis Girodet, executed in black and white by Lordereau. The paper shows slight foxing. Gilded wooden frame.
