Painting Description
"La Barrière de la Villette ou Barrière Saint-Martin" is a painting by the French artist Édouard Bernard Swebach, also known as Swebach-Desfontaines, born Jacques-François-Joseph Swebach. Born in 1769 in Paris and active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Swebach was known for his detailed military scenes, landscapes, and depictions of contemporary life. This particular work captures a scene at one of the tollhouses or "barrières" of the Farmers-General Wall, a tax wall that surrounded Paris in the 18th century.
The painting is significant as it illustrates a moment in Parisian history, showcasing the architecture of the tax wall and the daily activities around one of its gates. The Barrière de la Villette, also known as Barrière Saint-Martin, was one of the several tollgates where goods were taxed upon entering Paris. The Farmers-General Wall was deeply unpopular and was one of the contributing factors to the French Revolution. Swebach's work often reflects the social and historical context of his time, providing a window into the life and atmosphere of Paris before and after the Revolution.
"La Barrière de la Villette ou Barrière Saint-Martin" is characterized by Swebach's attention to detail and his ability to capture the vibrancy of urban life. His works are valuable to historians and art enthusiasts alike for their historical accuracy and artistic merit. While the exact date of this painting's creation is not specified, Swebach's active period suggests it would have been produced in the late 18th or early 19th century. The painting is a testament to Swebach's skill in documenting the urban landscape and the social dynamics of his time through the medium of art.
