The story behind the motif
Canvas print of the 1807 painting, Friedland, created by Ernest Meissonier - a French painter. For Meissonier, detailed historical accuracy became a passion, as we see in this painting depicting one of Napoleon Bonaparte's greatest victories.
Meissonier spent a large part of his time getting information confirmed, which resulted in him only painting two of the planned five paintings of scenes from Napoleon Buonaparte's career.
This work is the largest and most ambitious painting. Meissonier made hundreds of preparatory studies for it, including drawings and sculptural models. He conceived the picture as part of a cycle of five key episodes in the emperor's life, of which only one was completed - the Campaign of France , 1814.
Artist: Ernest Meissonier | Created: 1807.
Frame not included.
