According to the authentic legend on verso (also written on an attached piece of paper) it is a miniature portrait of a certain Charles Julius Francois Benoît, "receveur des finances" (tax collector) in the French town Verdun, region Lorraine.
Moreover, the stylistic criteria of this high quality miniature fully correspond to that of the works of very well-known French miniaturist Joseph Deranton (see our comparison images nr.9-11) who was living in Nancy at that time (early 1790s - according to the sitter's dress and hairstyle (see image nr.12)) which is situated 80 km away from Verdun centre.

Joseph Deranton (1756 Nancy - 1814 Paris) was a son of a clock-maker in Nancy. He was strongly influenced by works of François Dumont. Most of his known miniatures are from the last twenty years of 18th century (see also our last additional image).
