Alexis Vollon first studied with his father, and some of his paintings are very similar to those of his elder brother, even if the subject matter differs slightly. In fact, Alexis had a softer touch than his father and tried his hand at different subjects: he painted many landscapes in impressionist tones and, as here, staged figures. Our armourer, which is a large format, is painted in the painter's usual tones; the brushwork on the helmet is particularly successful.
