Early 19th-century French school, formerly attributed to Piotr Michalowsky (1800–1855). Portrait of a carabiniere from the First Empire, wearing a police cap. Oil on canvas (historically re-stretched). In a gilded wooden frame decorated with palmettes and scrolls at the corners. H. 60.5 x W. 50.5 cm. Frame: H. 73 x W. 62 cm. History A uniform reform in 1809, following the appointment of Louis Bonaparte as commander of this cavalry unit, led to a reversal of the colors on the police cap: from sky blue with maroon and white piping, the police cap is now white with maroon and sky blue piping. This cap is generally worn in the barracks, at the stables, or during practical riding exercises.
