Catalogue Note
Né à Strasbourg où il fut élève de Gabriel Guérin, Théodore Jung s'installa ensuite à Paris où il obtint la notoriété comme peintre d'histoire et de sujets militaires, souvent exécutés à la gouache. Un grand nombre de ces scènes de batailles sont conservées au Ministère de la Guerre. Il a également peint quelques vues de Paris, dont certaines ont été exposées au Salon. Notre aquarelle pourrait être la Vue de Paris prise du Mont Valérien, exposée en 1837.
