PLATE I.—FERDINAND GUILLEMARDET
(Museum of the Louvre)
This personage, who has left no record in history, was one of thosehigh functionaries, half civil and half military, whom the FirstRepublic sent to its armies to supervise the commissary department andalso to exercise an espionage over its generals. Goya has given avigorous rendering of a head that bears the double stamp of energy andhigh breeding; and the prevailing gray tone of this portrait, relievedonly by the one dash of brightness in the tricoloured scarf, formsaltogether a work of perfect harmony.
