介绍（中）	雷诺是一位多产的蜡质和粘土小型肖像和场景建模师，他定期在巴黎沙龙展出。在这里，他通过呈现一个温柔的小插曲，用服装和姿势的暗示来定义几代人，与新古典主义的同时代人在绘画中竞争：右边那个身材魁梧的男人，穿着时尚的高领，已经下马，仍然戴着马刺，迎接他的妻子、他们的四个孩子，还有一个年长的男人，他的父亲或她的父亲，或者可能是一位家庭教师。后者戴着假发，吸了一小撮鼻烟，坚持着过去的生活方式，而雷诺，一个顽固的保皇党人，肯定很喜欢这种生活方式自文艺复兴以来，在石板地面上浮雕蜡像的建模一直是奖牌获得者的初步技术，但雷诺将其本身作为目的，他相信这一微缩模型中令人愉悦的颜色和纹理对比将使其成为一种框架，并将其作为纪念品加以珍藏。
介绍（英）	Renaud was a prolific modeler of small portraits and scenes in wax and clay, which he exhibited regularly at the Paris Salon. Here, he vies with his Neoclassical contemporaries in painting by presenting a tender vignette, using hints of costume and posture to define the generations: the burly man at right, in a fashionable high collar, has dismounted, still wearing his spurs, to be greeted by his wife, their four children, and an older man—his father or hers, or perhaps a tutor. Bewigged and taking a pinch of snuff, the latter adheres to a bygone style of life, which Renaud, a diehard royalist, surely savored. The modeling of wax in relief on a slate ground had been a preliminary technique of medalists since the Renaissance, but Renaud used it as an end in itself, confident that the pleasing contrasts of color and texture achieved in this miniature would cause it to be framed and treasured as a keepsake.
