"Resting on the Road".
Oil on canvas.
Stamp on the back.
Signed in the lower right corner.
Measurements: 98 x 130 cm; 121 x 157cm (frame).
In this work, of romantic heritage, it is represented a multitude of characters and horses, stopped in their way next to a pond. The composition is determined by the V-shaped line formed by the nearby mountains, at the intersection of which, in the background, we see the outline of a city. Figures and animals are clearly individualised in their gestures and expressions, showing a narrative and costumbrista mood. On the other hand, the loose, impastoed brushstrokes give the scene vibrancy and naturalism. This style is directly linked to the great masters of the Golden Age, both European (Rembrandt, Rubens, Van Dyck, etc.) and Spanish (Velázquez, Ribera).
A painter of landscapes and animals, Jean-Antoine Duclaux began his training by studying drawing in Lyon under Grognard. At the same time, he began to work as a commercial clerk, which led him to travel to Naples in 1805 or 1806. There he became secretary to General Compère, and made numerous drawings of the Neapolitan landscape. From Italy he sent these works to Lyon, where he began to be known in artistic circles. When he returned to his native city, he continued to paint from sketches made in the open air, and his language matured thanks to the advice of Revoil and Fleury-Richard. He made his debut at the Paris Salon in 1812, and at the same official exhibition he was awarded a first-class medal only five years later, in 1817. During these years his main subject matter was the landscapes surrounding his house in Vourles, a village near Lyon. Around this time he also began to work in the technique of engraving, using mainly etching and dealing with the same landscape subjects as his easel work. In recent years his figure and his work have been recognised thanks to the outstanding exhibition devoted to him in 2013 by the Maison Forte de Vourles. Jean-Antoine Duclaux is currently represented in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Lyon, the Musée des Ursulines in Mâcon, the Musée Fabre in Montpellier, the Musée de Brou in Bourg-en-Bresse and other collections, both public and private.
