In the News (Fri 1 Jan 10)

  
  Louis Jean Desprez - Wikipedia
Louis Jean Desprez var en av många konstnärer, som Gustav III tog till Sverige.
Desprez visade sig kapabel till mycket mer än så; han var arkitekt, målare och grafiker förutom att han blev en särpräglad figur i det stockholmska sällskapslivet, självsäker, temperamentsfull, ständigt beredd att råka i slagsmål om någon retade honom.
Desprez kom till Sverige 1784, tre år senare ritade han sitt största byggnadsverk orangeriet i Uppsala och 1799 stadsfäste Gustav IV Adolf honom som konungens förste arkitekt.

 Louis Jean Desprez and his Sicilian Recollections
Desprez was 33 by then and had been married since 1770, much to the concern of the powerful "directeur général des bâtiments et jardins de Louis XVI", d'Angiviller, to whom Desprez was looking for provision for his wife while he was in Rome.
Desprez may also have felt prompted by the entire set of ideas behind the plans of Gustavus III for a play of chivalry to be performed at the Drottningholm Castle during the summer of 1782.
Desprez' two sheets are unique and exotic contributions to Swedish, not to say European art; they are an attempt at documenting, in an almost monumental form, rites and ceremonies that must have indelibly shocked the tourist, however natural they may have been in Sicily.

For example, in 1822 Louis Marie Henri Navier (1785-1836), a bridge engineer, was the first to attempt the extension of the Euler equations of acceleration to include the flow of a viscous fluid.
The same equations were developed with groater comprehension somewhat later by the mathematician Baron Augustin Louis de Cauchy (1789-1857) [30], next by the mechanician Simeon Denis Poisson (1781-1840) [31], and finally in 1845 by the Cambridge professor George Gabriel Stokes (1819 1903) [32], the latter eventually applying the equations to the resistance of small spheres.
A few years later the French physician Jean Louis Poiseuille (1799-1869) repeated the experiments independently [35], using even liner tubes to simulate blood vessels, and oil and mercury in addition to water.

Having made a trip to Paris as crown prince, he was also keenly interested in Neoclassical art and design; in 1883 he traveled to Italy, where he visited Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Paestum.
The so-called Gustavian Style, still greatly admired by art-conscious Swedes, is in fact the Swedish naturalization of what we call the Louis Seize Style.
Behind the villa is an English-style park, romantically shady in parts, where, as the current owner, Hans Ramel, put it to me, his 18th-century ancestors would sit and read ("but, you know, very guardedly") Rousseau's theories about sexuality and child-rearing.
