Le Soir 1800
Pequignot traveled to Rome where he became friends with Girodet, and were eventually forced to flee to Naples in 1793, where Pequignot would remain for the rest of his life. While in Naples, he would create fantasy landscape paintings, featuring women sleeping by lakes, mythological figures, towering trees and narrow paths.
