Leon Augustine L'Hermitte. |

In 1866 first Léon Augustin Lhermitte painting, Violets in a
Glass, Shells, Screen, was exhibited at the
Salon, and he produced his first etching,
for his friend Frederic Henriet’s book
Payagiste aux champs. In 1869 Léon Augustin Lhermitte artist made his
first visit to London, where he met Legros.
On his second visit in 1871 Legros
recommended him as an illustrator for paintings
of Art in the Collections of England Drawn
by E. Lie and introduced him to the dealer
Durand-Ruel, who agreed to sell several of
his drawings. In 1873 Durand-Ruel sent some
of Léon Augustin Lhermitte paintings to the Dudley Gallery
for the first of the annual Black and White
exhibitions and he subsequently
became a regular participant. During this early period in his career he executed compositions replete with the most minute details, depicting each diverse activity before the advent of industrialization overtook the village life of France. In 1880 Léon Augustin Lhermitte earned another medal, this time a second class medal, for La Vieille Demeure (The Old Women Remains) and Inauguration de l’Hotel-Dieu de Chateau-Thierry (Inauguration of the Hotel-Dieu of Chateau-Thierry). These charcoal drawings, or “fusains” as they were in French, were “…fully developed compositions…These Léon Augustin Lhermitte paintings, in the subtlety of their handling of light, their preciseness of detail, and their emphasis on observation are among the earliest major ‘black and white’ drawings establishing the medium as suitable for exhibitable work not just for preparatory studies.” (Gabriel P. Weisberg, The Realist Tradition: French Painting and Drawing, 1830-1900, Cleveland: The Cleveland Museum of Art, 1980, pg. 301) |

Lhermitte's fine etchings have drawn comparison to the art of such diverse
masters as
Pissarro, Legros, Lalanne and
Bastien Lepage.
Léon Augustin Lhermitte, however, claimed that his strongest
inspiration in the art came from the painting of
Millet. Like Millet, Lhermitte was drawn
to the life and nobility of the poor, whether in the streets of Paris or in the
countryside.
La Boucherie, for example, depicts an interior scene within a modest butcher's shop and clearly shows the power of his etched art. His gift to portray the people and their environment with both sensitivity and dignity made the painter perhaps the greatest French realist artist since Courbet.Today, Léon Augustin Lhermitte etchings and paintings are housed in major public collections around the world, including museums in Boston, Washington, Chicago, Montreal, Brussels, Rheims, Paris, Moscow and Florence. |
