Painting Description
"The Battle of Aboukir, 7 Thermidor, Year 7 (25 July 1799)" is a historical engraving created by French artists Jacques François Joseph Swebach and Louis François Couche. This museum-quality work depicts the significant military event, the Battle of Aboukir, which occurred during the French Revolutionary Wars. The date referenced in the title, 7 Thermidor, Year 7, adheres to the French Republican Calendar, translating to 25 July 1799 in the Gregorian calendar.
The engraving was crafted by Jacques François Joseph Swebach (1769-1823), known as Swebach-Desfontaines, an acclaimed French artist recognized for his portrayals of military, genre, and history scenes, who also achieved prominence as a furniture decorator under Napoleon Bonaparte. The engraving process was executed by Louis François Couche (1782–1849), a proficient French engraver renowned in the early 19th-century for his prominent partnerships and collaborations with other artists in bringing their works to a wider audience through the medium of engraving.
In this piece, Swebach embodies the chaos and tumultuous outlook of the battle, utilizing detailed and precise lines to capture the violent clash of the French and Ottoman forces, the desperation in both soldierly and civilian figures, and the dramatic atmospheric effects. This engraving stands not only as a historical record but also as a testament to the technical abilities of Swebach and Couche, their collaborative effort providing an insight into the visual culture and historical remembrances of the Napoleonic era in France.
