Painting Description
"The Battle of Friedland, 14 June 1807, engraved by Francois Pigeot b.1775" is a historical artwork that captures the pivotal moments of the Battle of Friedland, a significant military engagement during the Napoleonic Wars. The original work was created by Jacques Francois Joseph Swebach, a French painter and engraver known for his depictions of battles and military scenes. Born in 1769, Swebach was a prolific artist whose works often reflected the tumultuous events of his time, offering a visual narrative of the Napoleonic era.
This particular engraving, executed by Francois Pigeot, who was born in 1775 and specialized in such reproductions, represents the intensity and chaos of the battle which took place on June 14, 1807. The Battle of Friedland was a decisive victory for Napoleon Bonaparte's Grande Armée against the Russian Army, under the command of General Levin August, Count von Bennigsen. The victory led to the Treaties of Tilsit, which temporarily established French dominance over much of continental Europe.
Swebach's detailed portrayal in the engraving is not only a work of historical documentation but also an artistic interpretation that conveys the drama and the movement of the battle. The piece is significant for its historical accuracy and its contribution to the visual culture of the Napoleonic period. It serves as an important artifact for both art historians and scholars of military history, offering insights into the representation of warfare in the early 19th century.
The engraving is a testament to the collaborative nature of printmaking at the time, showcasing Pigeot's skill in translating Swebach's vision onto the print medium. The artwork remains an essential reference for those studying the Napoleonic Wars and the art that emerged from this era, reflecting the power struggles that shaped modern Europe.
