Emprisonné à Milan, puis à Venise, condamné à mort puis gracié par lempereur, il fut envoyé en 1822 à Spielberg en Moravie théâtre des présents mémoires - Intérieur avec quelques rousseurs pâles, reliure en très bon état, Bon exemplaire..

He was equally known for his many drawings of cats in both natural…
