Français : Portrait de Joseph-Nicolas Barbeau du Barran, dessiné en 1795 par Jacques-Louis David alors que les deux étaient emprisonnés
English: Portrait of Joseph-Nicolas Barbeau du Barran, drawn in 1795 by Jacques-Louis David while in prison
This is one of a series of drawings David drew while in prison. He was arrested on 15 Thermidor An III (2 August 1794) as a member of the Comit de Salut Public headed by Maximilien Robespierre. Robespierre had been guillotined a few days before and David owed his own life to his absence from the Convention because of illness. The artist was imprisoned in the Htel des Fermes Gnrales, rue de Grenelle-Saint-Honor, for a month and then was transferred to the Luxembourg Castle. He was freed on 8 Nivse (28 December 1794). He executed a series of portrait drawings of his fellow-prisoners during his second sojourn in prison. The present drawing was probably made while Barbeau was imprisoned in the Collge des Quatres-Nations. |
