RARISSIVE SET OF MILITARY VIEWS of the Italian campaigns, depicting the cities, towns and battlefields that were the scene of operations in the two Italian campaigns led by Bonaparte.

The Piedmontese landscape painter and engineer-geographer Giuseppe Pietro Bagetti (1764-1831) had two successive careers. The first, in the service of Victor-Amédée III, King of Sardinia, his natural sovereign, who had early noticed his talent, enabled him to accompany, from 1793, the Piedmontese troops stationed in the County of Nice and then sent to Toulon when this port was occupied by the English. On his return, he was appointed to teach military topography at the Ecole du Génie in Turin. It was in this capacity that he took part, albeit from a distance, in the first Italian campaign and the French conquest of Piedmont. His second career began at the end of fructidor an VIII [September 1800], when, at the suggestion of generals Dupont and Oudinot, he joined the Cabinet historique et topographique. Assigned to the Army of Italy in Year IX as Captain Engineer-Geographer, under the command of General Brune, he had to execute, from life and under the direction of Joseph-François-Marie Martinelli, known as de Martinel, a series of watercolors relating to the military actions of the two Italian campaigns under Bonaparte. Bagetti worked in this way for eight years, completing around 80 commissioned paintings, not just of Bonaparte's Italian period (he had, for example, followed the Emperor to Austerlitz, Russia, and also executed views there). Long after the end of the Empire and Bagetti's return to Turin (1815), 67 views of Italian battlefields were published under the order of Lieutenant-General Pelet, and they form the exceptional collection presented here, which seems to have had a relatively small print run. Three copies in the CCF (BnF, Sainte-Geneviève, Lyon).
