EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the first passage of the Rhine by the French army, led by generals Jourdan and Kleber. Painted by Louis Francois Lejeune in 1824, this masterpiece measures an impressive 2.1x2.5 meters and is housed in the Musee et Domaine National de Versailles et de Trianon in Versailles, France. The painting depicts a pivotal event that took place on September 6,1795, at Dusseldorf in the Duchy of Berg. The French army can be seen triumphantly crossing the Rhine River, symbolizing their successful advancement into German territory during a time of war. Lejeune's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life with vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes. The composition showcases both military precision and natural beauty as soldiers navigate through turbulent waters while surrounded by picturesque landscapes. This artwork not only serves as a testament to Lejeune's artistic talent but also commemorates an important chapter in European history. It highlights the bravery and strategic prowess of Jourdan and Kleber as they lead their troops towards victory against formidable German forces. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to a time when nations clashed on battlefields along mighty rivers like the Rhine. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their countries' ideals and serves as a reminder of how art can immortalize significant moments from our past.
