J.F.J. SCHWEBASH-DESFONTAIN. France, 1769-1823 Rest of the Russian cavalry.
JACQUES FRANCOIS JOSEPH SCHWEBACH-DESFONTAIN. France, 1769-1823 Rest of the Russian cavalry. Famous French artist, invited by Emperor Alexander I to the post of artistic director of the imperial porcelain factories, from 1815 to 1820.
The work is a rest scene of dismounted Russian lancers and cuirassiers, who are invited into the house by a stately Russian peasant woman in red. The idyllic image of the girl does not deceive the cuirassier, and he looks incredulously at the peasant dwelling. While the Lancers are rather seduced by the invitation. Zealous horses, surrounded by good-natured dogs, are presented against the backdrop of a boundless clear sky and the pastoral landscape of the foothills. The rationality of the classic message reveals the moral imperative of the army - to protect the population, the people. Signed and indistinct date Swebach 181 (6). Oil on canvas, 54 x 72 cm.
Location: Gallery "Antiqon", Brivibas street 52, Riga, Latvia

Ж.Ф.Ж. ШВЕБАШ-ДЕСФОНТЕН. Франция, 1769-1823 гг. Отдых Русской кавалерии.
ЖАК ФРАНСУА ЖОЗЕФ ШВЕБАШ-ДЕСФОНТЕН. Франция, 1769-1823 гг. Отдых Русской кавалерии. Известный французский художник, приглашенный императором Александром I на должность художественного руководителя императорских фарфоровых заводов, с 1815 по 1820 года.
Работа представляет собой сцену отдыха спешившихся Русских улан и кирасира, которых приглашает в дом статная Русская крестьянка в красном. Идиллический образ девушки не обманывает кирасира, и он недоверчиво смотрит на крестьянское жилище. В то время как улан, скорее прельщен приглашением. Ретивые кони, в окружении добродушных собак, представлены на фоне безбрежного чистого неба и пасторального пейзажа предгорий. Рациональность классицистического послания раскрывает моральный императив армии - защищать население, народ. Подпись и нечеткая дата Swebach 181 (6).Холст, масло, 54 х 72 см.
