Lars Teichmann has repeatedly focused on French salon painting in the 18th and 19th centuries. This is also the case with this painting - the figure's hat, indicated with just one brushstroke, is unmistakable. As if from another world, the motif flashes into our time and shows us Teichmann's idea of ​​a sublime, newly interpreted visual language. Lars Teichmann's ›Napoleone‹ is a masterpiece in itself, to the point and yet with casual verve.

Lars Teichmann's works contain references to paintings from earlier eras; he finds inspiration in costume books, historical photographs and novels. The figures depicted on Teichmann's canvas are often larger than the viewer himself; they remain in majestic poses, in a calm posture or on horseback; they dance and look at us faceless. The artist offers the individual and collective visual memory a new type of perception, directing the viewer's gaze to reduced and unadorned canvases, which have such a strong expression in their composition that they do without any superfluous attributes.

From 2002 to 2008, Lars Teichmann studied fine art under Prof. Wolfgang Petrick and Prof. Daniel Richter at the UDK Berlin. In 2006, he was a master student there under Prof. Valérie Favre. Numerous solo and group exhibitions took place during his studies and in the following years took him to Milan, Modena, Prague, Poznan, to the 54th Venice Biennale, Munich and many other places. His works can be found in public and well-known private collections; examples include the SØR Rusche Collection, the Benetton Foundation, the Berlinische Galerie and the Collezione Euromobil die Falze di Piave.
