Johann Baptist Heinefetter (1815 Mainz – 1902 Baden-Baden) Covered Wagon Raid from the Napoleonic Wars A vivid and detailed depiction of a military skirmish by the genre, landscape, and battle painter Heinefetter, who studied in Munich under the battle painter Dietrich Monten. In this scene—which, according to the label on the back, depicts a raid by Napoleonic soldiers on a covered wagon and Austrian ulans—the artist placed great emphasis on the historically accurate depiction of the uniforms. After several study trips, Heinefetter settled in Baden-Baden, where, in 1842, he and Jakob Götzenberger decorated the Baden-Baden Trinkhalle with murals. In the 1850s, he accompanied Götzenberger to England, where the two executed a historical cycle at Bridgewater House in London’s St. James’s Park. Grand Duke Friedrich I of Baden visited Heinefetter in his studio on several occasions, acquired several large landscape paintings, and appointed him court painter. Oil on canvas; Mounted on cardboard. Signed lower left and dated 1858; estate stamp on the reverse. 30 cm x 63 cm. Framed. Oil on canvas, mounted on cardboard. Signed and dated; estate stamp on the reverse.
