| Description |
Deutsch: Der Friedhof von Saint-Privat, 1881, Öl auf Leinwand, Musée d´Orsay, Paris; Der Friedhof von Saint-Privat in der Nähe von Metz wurde zum blutigen Schlachtfeld, auf dem 42000 Soldaten starben. Am 18. August 1870 kämpften dort die französischen Truppen, erkennbar an ihren roten Hosen, in den letzten Zügen gegen die preußische Armee. Das Licht, das durch den Gefechtsrauch im oberen Bildteil dringt, betont die Dramatik des Kampfes. Neuville hebt mit seiner Darstellung hervor, dass auch die Niederlage ehrenvoll sein kann. Mit dem Bild verteidigt er den republikanischen Patriotismus und stärkt das französische Revanchestreben. Das Gemälde, das 1881 im Pariser Salon erstmals ausgestellt wurde, brachte dem Künstler den Offizierstitel der Ehrenlegion ein.
English: The cemetery of Saint-Privat near Metz became a bloody battlefield [Battle of Gravelotte] on which 42,000 soldiers died. On 18 August 1870, the French troops, recognizable by their red trousers, fought there in the last moves against the Prussian army. The light, which penetrates through the battle smoke in the upper part of the picture, emphasizes the drama of the fight. Neuville points out that even defeat can be honorable. With the image he defends the republican patriotism and strengthens the French resolve. The painting, which was first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1881, earned the artist the title of officer of the Legion of Honor. |
