description: "Antoine Léon Morel-Fatio was a Swiss-French painter and politician who served as the Peintre de la Marine in 1854. Born in Rouen, Normandy, he added \"Fatio\" to his surname in 1844 to distinguish himself from a businessman of the same name. Morel-Fatio subsequently moved to Paris, where he painted marine art and was appointed as the curator of the naval and ethnographic sections of the Louvre in addition to serving as the mayor of the 20th arrondissement of Paris. In 1871, he died of a myocardial infarction during the Franco-Prussian War after witnessing Prussian Army troops entering the Louvre."
