Description
English: "This portrait was commissioned by George IV and was painted in 1818 at Aix-la-Chapelle, though it remained in Lawrence's studio until his death. The portrait seems to have always been intended for what became the 'Waterloo Chamber' and acknowledges the sitter’s role as Prime Minister of France (1815-18) at the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle and friend of the Russian Tzar, whom he had served with extraordinary distinction during his exile from France from 1803 until 1814. Richelieu was especially responsible for the expansion of the city of Odessa during his time as Governor there: the famous steps are surmounted by a statue in his honour."
