An original late 19th-century chromolithograph depicting Jean-Paul Marat, a prominent figure of the French Revolution. This piece was created by the Spanish lithographer Felipe González Rojas, as indicated by the signature.
The caption below the image, "MARAT EN BATA : DE UN GRABADO DE SU TIEMPO," translates to "MARAT IN A DRESSING GOWN: FROM AN ENGRAVING OF HIS TIME," suggesting it is a 19th-century interpretation of an earlier, contemporary portrait. The print is likely an extract from a high-quality Spanish historical publication, as denoted by the term "Lujo" (Luxury).
