The image, housed in the Musée Carnavalet in Paris, France, showcases Barras in formal attire typical of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Barras played a significant role in French politics during the French Revolution and the subsequent Directory regime. He rose to prominence as a member of the Jacobin Club and served as the President of the National Convention from 1795 to 1796. Barras is also known for his role in the coup of 18 Brumaire in 1799, which brought Napoleon Bonaparte to power. The portrait presents a stern and serious expression, reflecting the political turmoil and upheaval of the time. The engraving highlights the intricate details of Barras' clothing, including the vest, cravat, and trousers, which were popular during the period. Overall, this portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a key figure in French history and the political landscape of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
