    French school of the 19th century, scene of military life from the war of 1870, it represents a French staff bivouac with a general and his deputy a cavalry colonel, receiving a dispatch from a cavalry captain. On the right, an artillery captain is leaning over a map to make his firing calculations. The French flag flutters in the wind over the General's tent. The painting is presented in a beautiful 19th century channel frame, gilded with gold leaf.
    Beautiful oil on canvas with scrupulous drawing, full of details on the finely represented uniforms and equipment. It is signed lower left E Brisset and dated 1898. A cartouche on the frame shows the name of the artist and the title of the painting "a dispatch".

    Emile Brisset (1844 1904), is a French painter, active in Paris, known as a student of Edouard Detaille. Like him, he specialized in scenes of military life, mainly from the war of 1870. His main work "the day after the battle of Froeschwiller" was exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1885.

    Beautiful patriotic painting celebrating the glory of the French army in the context of the "Belle Epoque", where French society animated by the desire for revenge prepared the following conflict to recover Alsace and Lorraine.
