Marechal Jean-Baptiste Donatien de...
Nineteenth century painting of Marshal Rochambeau by an unknown artist.
The work hangs at the Musée de Vendôme.
Image at top of page is a detail from an oil painting by A. Couder (signed in 1836) held by Musée National de Versailles. The work is based upon a gouache, 1784 painting by Louis van Blarenghe's of 'The Siege of Yorktown'. The pose, used in both paintings, has become a standard for depicting the general, and is used in several statues of Rochambeau in France and the US.
