Jean Léon Gérôme Biography

French Orientalist painter, draftsman & sculptor
born 11 May 1824 - died 1904
Born in: Vesoul (Haute-Saône, Franche-Comté, France).
Died in: Paris (Département de Ville de Paris, Ile-de-France, France)

Student of: Paul Delaroche (1797-1856), Charles Gleyre (1808-1874)

Teacher of: Frederick Arthur Bridgman (1847-1928) from 1866 to 1870, Mary Cassatt (1844-1926), Kenyon Cox (1856-1919), Pascal-Adolphe-Jean Dagnan-Bouveret (1852-1929), Thomas Eakins, Theodore Robinson (1852-1896), Julius LeBlanc Stewart (1855-1919), Abbott Handerson Thayer (1849-1921), Julian Alden Weir (1852-1919).

French painter, was born on the 11th of May 1824 at Vesoul (Haute-SaOne). Jean Léon Gérôme went to Paris in 1841 and worked under Paul Delaroche, whom he accompanied to Italy (1844—1845). On his return Jean Leon Gerome exhibited The Cock-fight, which gained him a third-class medal in the Salon of 1847. The Virgin with Christ and St John and Anacreon, Bacchus and Cupid took a second-class medal in 1848. Jean Léon Gérôme exhibited Bacchus and Love, Drunk, a Greek Interior and Souvenir d’Italie, in 1851; Paestum (1852); and An Idyll (1853).

In 1854 the painter made a journey to Turkey and the shores of the Danube, and in 1857 visited Egypt. To the exhibition of 1855 Jean Léon Gérôme contributed a Pifferaro, A Shepherd, A Russian Concert and a large historical canvas, The Age of Augustus and the Birth of Christ. The last was somewhat confused in effect, but in recognition of its consummate ability the State purchased it. His reputation was greatly enhanced at the Salon of 1857 by a collection of Jean-Léon Gérôme paintings of a more popular kind: the Duel: after a Masquerade, Egyptian Recruits crossing the Desert, Memnon and Sesostris and Camels Watering, the drawing of which was criticized by Edmond About.

In Caesar (1859) Jean-Léon Gérôme tried to return to a severer class of painting, but the picture failed to interest the public. Phryne before the Areopagus, Le Roi Candaule and Socrates finding Alcibiades in the House of Aspasia (1861) gave rise to some scandal by reason of the subjects selected by the painter, and brought down on him the bitter attacks of Paul de Saint-Victor and Maxime Ducamps. At the same Salon Jean Léon Gérôme exhibited the Egyptian chopping Straw, and Rembrandt biting an Etching, two very minutely finished Gérôme paintings.

The best Jean-Léon Gérôme paintings are of Eastern subjects; among these may be named the Turkish Prisoner and Turkish Butcher (1863); Prayer (1865); The Slave Market (1867); and The Harem out Driving (1869). Jean Leon Gerome often illustrated history, as in Louis XIV. and Moliere (1863); The Reception of the Siamese Ambassadors at Fontainebleau (1865); and The Death of Marshal Ney (1868).

Gérôme was also successful as a sculptor; the Orientalism artist executed, among other Jean-Léon Gérôme paintings; Omphale (1887), and the statue of the due d’Aumale which stands in front of the chateau of Chantilly (1899). His Bellona (1892), in ivory, metal, and precious stones, which was also exhibited in the Royal Academy of London, attracted great attention. The artist then began an interesting series of Conquerors, wrought in gold, silver and gems — Bonaparte entering Cairo (1897); Tamerlane (1898) and Frederick the Great (1899). Jean-Léon Gérôme was elected member of the Institut in 1865. Jean Léon Gérôme died in 1904.
