Louis-Bonaparte en uniforme du colonel du 5e régiment de dragons (1778-1846) is a 1852 oil by Charles Jalabert, a French Romanticism work, held at Château de Malmaison.
This painting shows a man in a military uniform. He's wearing a red jacket with gold buttons and a high collar, and a black cape with gold epaulets. On his head is a helmet with a leopard-skin pattern and a red plume. The man's face is serious, with a strong jawline and a hint of a smile. His eyes are looking straight ahead, and his dark hair is visible under the helmet. The background of the painting is a soft, muted color, which helps to focus attention on the man.
