About this work

A classical interior shows a seated warrior in a red-crested helmet gesturing toward a reclining woman in white drapery on a gilded couch with a swan-form armrest. A standing attendant in dark green and maroon leans in beside a small child, with tall columns and a view of a distant city beyond the open arcade. Pierre-Narcisse Guérin painted this work in 1810, and it is held by the Department of Paintings of the Louvre.
