of the Austrian Emperor near Leoben, Steiermark on 7 April, 1797
Lecomte (1781-1857) was primarily known for painting historical scenes. He was related by marriage to another prominent French painter, Horace Vernet (who will be featured numerous times in coming months on this blog). Lecomte's son, Émile Vernet-Lecomte, was also a painter.
