Description

Lebrun, Charles - School or circle of - The Wedding Night - (Paris 1619-1690 ibid.) In a palace interior with columned architecture, a young woman is being prepared for a wedding night by a servant, the noble husband is being dressed up by his servant boys. Oil on canvas, doubl. 74 x 102 cm. - Thieme/Becker 22 - With expert opinion by Jörg Michael Henneberg, 2022, where he points out: "... In 1660 Charles Lebrun created his Alexander cycle, which mirrored the work of Louis XIV in that of the Macedonian king Alexander the Great and thus celebrated Louis XIV as the New Alexander. This "antique" context also includes the present painting, which is an important work of Neoclassical painting under Louis XIV and is very revealing of the reception of antiquity in the Baroque period. The smooth painting style and the statuesque calm of the figures also make this painting an important work of Neoclassicism under Louis XIV, which in many ways provided a basis for the Neoclassical work of Jacques Louis David, over a century later" and refers to the following literature: Cf. Hans-Joachim Zimmermann, Der Triumph der Akademie. Eine allegorische Komposition von Charles Le Brun, Heidelberg 1988. Cf. Fabian Stein, Charles Le Brun, Worms 1985. Cf. Pierre Marcel, Charles Le Brun, Paris c. 1910.
