Comment on Ropp's Commission 1804-05
According to NN, Catalogue des Tableaux…, op. cit., cat. no. 3, the height of this bust was “2 p.[ieds du roi] 2 p.[ouces]” = 70.4 cm; but this must have been an error, as the bust is listed as “Buste Colossal du Jupiter,” and appears first on a list of eight busts in descending order of height in the Catalogue des Tableaux…, op. cit.
