	Portrait of Joseph Caillot, the actor - 1787 Oil on Canvas, 92 x 72 cm Private Collection, Paris "He wore the uniform [of the Captain of the Hunt] and this was how I painted him, his rifle on his shoulder. So inspiring was his handsome laughing face that I managed to complete the painting in one sitting." - Letter VIII. Vigée Le Brun also painted oval pastels of Caillot's son and daughter. We may have those images (son and daughter), though some feel they are the work of Greuze.
