Christian Wilhelm von Faber du Faur (18 August 1780 in Stuttgart – 6 February 1857 in Stuttgart) was a painter and an officer in the army of the Kingdom of Württemberg. He first devoted himself to painting, but subsequently became a soldier, and as a lieutenant in the 25th Division (the Württemberg unit) of the III Corps of Napoleon's Grande Armée, served in the French invasion of Russia, which he sketched as it progressed. His sketches were exhibited in 1816, and subsequently he used them to produce color plates, and then in 1831-44 published some of them, with text, in a work entitled ''Blatter aus meinem Portefeuille im Laufe des Feldzugs 1812,''. His most noteworthy paintings are ''The Passage of the Beresina,'' a work of great merit, and ''The Coffee-House at Wilna.'' He attained the rank of general in 1849. ==Gallery== File:Faur-smolensk1812.jpg|''Smolensk, 1812'' File:Beshenkovichi 1b.jpg|In Beshankovichy File:Beshenkovichi 1e.jpg|In Beshankovichy File:Faber kehringer.jpg|''Joseph Kehringer'', drawing ca. 1800 now in the Städtisches Museum Schwäbisch Gmünd 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Christian Wilhelm von Faber du Faur」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
