These two paintings by Fournier are
of the cupola of the Villa di San Donato from the time of Prince Anatole
Demidoff [thumbnail left]. You can see paintings of his father, Count
Nicholas, and mother, Baronne Stroganoff, as well as, statues of the Emperor
Napoleon and of the Emperor's mother, Laetezia. The Napoleonic items
were purchased from Anatole's father in law, King Jerome Bonaparte. These
date to the 1840's
