I'll be glad to review this nomination.  Should take no more than 5 days for an initial response.  More to come!--Jburlinson (talk) 09:54, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
Very well written and organized article.  I only have a couple of comments.
It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar):  b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): 
The lead seems a little undernourished.  It might help to highlight a couple of significant details from the body of the article.  Particularly, the evaluative comment in the lead is quite negative, while the article contains some more positive responses that might be used to balance the impression left by the lead and further enhance the notability of the subject.
Expanded. GeneralPoxter (talk • contribs) 12:50, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
Also, the sub-section labeled "Fate" is a little ambiguous.  It likely refers to the final disposition of the painting, but there's a possibility that it might refer to Napoleon's military exploits or even a theme depicted in the artwork.  I'd suggest simply deleting this heading and including the material under the general section "History".
Subsection headers removed. GeneralPoxter (talk • contribs) 12:50, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section):  b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):  d (copyvio and plagiarism): 

It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects):  b (focused): 

It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias: 

It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.: 

It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):  b (appropriate use with suitable captions): 

Overall:
Pass/Fail: 
Very close to GA, only a couple of items that needed adjustment before the final stamp of approval.--Jburlinson (talk) 12:15, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
