Exhibition : Probably Salon de 1796, n° 278 (Les contes de ma Grand-Mère. Tableau de genre). Bibliography : - A.-P. de Mirimonde, Pierre-Nicolas Legrand peintre franco-suisse, Extrait de la Gazette des Beaux-Arts, November 1959, quoted p. 266. - J. -F. Heim, C. Béraud, J. -P.

The workmanship of the fabrics, the roundness of the forms and the choice of colors bring our painting into line with the paintings the artist produced in 1798 and 1799, L'Heureuse famille and L'École de la Charité (canvases, 60 x 72 cm, signed and dated "An VII" and "An VIII").
