EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Antoine Christophe Saliceti, a prominent French politician of the 18th century. The portrait, created by an unknown artist during the first empire, captures the essence of Saliceti's influential persona. Saliceti was born in Saliceto, Corsica in 1757 and tragically passed away in Naples in 1809. He played a significant role as a member of both the Convention and the Five-Cent Council, where he actively supported Napoleon Bonaparte's early career. His unwavering dedication to Bonaparte led him to become minister plenipotentiary in Lucca and Genoa. In 1806, Saliceti assumed the position of minister for Joseph Bonaparte in Naples; however, his time there was marked by animosity from those who despised him. Despite facing opposition and hatred during his tenure as minister, Saliceti remained steadfastly committed to serving his country. The engraving beautifully captures Saliceti's dignified presence with intricate details that highlight his importance as a statesman during this transformative period in history. This remarkable piece is part of a private collection and has been preserved through time. Giancarlo Costa skillfully photographed this engraving while ensuring it remains out of copyright restrictions. It serves as an invaluable historical artifact that allows us to appreciate not only Antoine Christophe Saliceti but also the political landscape he navigated alongside Napoleon Bonaparte himself.
