Bernard-Édouard Swebach

Bernard-Édouard Swebach (21 August 1800, Paris - 2 March 1870, Versailles) was a French painter and lithographer.

Following the abdication of Napoleon, he went with his father to St.Petersburg, where Tsar Alexander I had invited him to direct the Imperial Porcelain Factory.

[1] In 1820, after their return to Paris, they established a joint workshop and produced what they called "four-handed paintings".

[2] Many of his early and transitional paintings are difficult to attribute accurately, as both he and his father signed their works with "Swebach", or not at all.
