Jean-Pierre Boyer, President of the Republic of Haiti, circa 1825
Lithograph presenting a formal, profile-view portrait of Jean-Pierre Boyer, a significant historical figure who served as the President of the Republic of Haiti from 1818 to 1843. Executed in a refined neoclassical style, the print depicts Boyer facing toward the left, dressed in an ornate military uniform featuring high, embroidered collars and a prominent epaulette on his right shoulder. A heavy cloak is draped over his left shoulder, adding a sense of statesmanlike gravitas to his military bearing. Below the image, his name is printed in a bold, capitalized serif font, followed by the elegant cursive inscription, "Président de la République d'Haïti." The fine line work and subtle tonal shading suggest this is a mid-19th-century French lithograph, likely produced during his long tenure to commemorate his leadership and the unification of the island. Unmounted; Unframed.
