EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "On a Terrace, 1867" by Jean-Louis Ernest Meissonier takes us back to the enchanting world of French history and literature. Meissonier, known for his expertise in printmaking and book illustration, showcases his talent in this small oil painting on wood panel. The scene depicts a man dressed in traditional costume reminiscent of characters from Alexandre Dumas' famous novel, The Three Musketeers. With a plumed hat atop his head and a sword at his side, he stands proudly on the terrace against the backdrop of a picturesque roof. Meissonier's attention to detail and technical virtuosity is evident as he captures every intricate element with precision. The full-length portrait exudes an air of romanticism that was immensely popular during the time. Not only did Meissonier excel in historical subjects like this one but also contemporary military themes. Interestingly enough, he became an arch-foe of Gustave Courbet, one of the leading Realist painters of that era. Displayed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, this artwork is part of Clara Louise Gehring Bickford's bequest. It serves as a testament to Meissonier's artistic prowess and enduring contribution to the world of art.
