William-Adolphe Bouguereau One has to seek Beauty and Truth, Sir! As
I always say to my pupils, you have to work
to the finish. There's only one kind of
painting. It is the painting that presents
the eye with perfection, the kind of
beautiful and impeccable enamel you find in
Veronese and Titian. |

As a young man, Bouguereau
put himself through the Ecole des Beaux-Arts
by keeping books for a wine merchant and
coloring lithographic labels for a local
grocer. In his
spare time, late in the evening, he created
drawings from memory. This
diligence and discipline resulted in an extraordinarily productive artistic life.
Bouguereau produced more than seven hundred
finished works and achieved a remarkable
level of public acclaim and financial
success. William-Adolphe Bouguereau never forgot his
difficult early days, however; working
secretly, he assisted young artists who were
struggling as he had to pursue an artistic
career in the face of financial
difficulties. The tenderness with which he portrayed children and domestic scenes, his technical skill and passion for the classics, and his love of rich color are hallmarks of Bouguereau's exquisite paintings. The career of William Bouguereau, unlike that of his contemporaries, the then avant-garde Impressionists, was one of ever-increasing success without significant setback. he was born on the west coast of France into a family of wine (later olive oil) merchants and was given a classical education by his uncle Eugène, a curate, who tutored him in bible study, Latin and Greek, with particular reference to Old and New Testament stories and classical mythology. he also arranged for him to take drawing lessons and such was his ability that after only 2 years of part-time study, Bouguereau won first prize in the figure-painting class at the Bordeaux Ecole des Beaux-Arts. |

| With the help of money earned from painting portraits of his uncle's parishioners and financial assistance from an aunt, at the age of 21 William went to Paris to train in the studio of François-Edouard Picot and, after only two months of tutoring there, at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. Chosen as a contestant for the Prix de Rome in the years of 184and 1849 (1contestants were admitted each year), Bouguereau was finally awarded the prize in 1850. As was the tradition, the winner was sent to Rome for years to study at the Villa Medici, the seat of the French Academy in Italy, where the techniques of the classical and Renaissance masters were tought. While there he also took the opportunity to travel extensively throughout the country locating and copying many Renaissance masterpieces and visiting towns and lakes which had inspired the landscape artists. The influences from this period are readily apparent in all his future work. |

Returning to Paris in 1854, Bouguereau
regularly exhibited at the Salon and was
awarded many commissions for portraits and
decorative series. His work was very popular
with both public and the critics and he was
soon able to sell through the dealers
Durand-Ruel and Goupil, finding enthusiastic markets in England and America. Official international recognition was also forthcoming: in 1862 he was named an honorary member of the Belgian Society of Artists and in 186became a member of the Royal Academy of Fine art in Holland. William-Adolphe Bouguereau won a first-class medal at the international exhibition in Munich in 1879 and in 1881 became a Chevalier of the Order of Leopold in Belgium, being elevated to the rank of Commander in 1895. 1889 saw him become a member of the Honorary Order of Spain and a Member of the Royal Academy of Fine Art in Belgium. Bouguereau was also a respected teacher and in 1881 was elected president of the painting section of the Paris Salon. In 1883 he became president of the benevolent Society of Painters, Architects, Sculptors, Engravers and Designers, which promoted and attended to the welfare of new and struggling artists. he also taught drawing at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and also taught at the independent Académie Julian. In 1879 William Bouguereau became engaged to the young American artist Elizabeth Jane Gardner (1837-1922) who was his neighbour in Montparnasse, but their wedding was initially opposed by his daughter Henriette and also his mother, not until whose death at the age of 91 in 189were they able to marry, and they lived together happily for the few remaining years of his life.- Here is French William-Adolphe Bouguereau biography and Bouguereau paintings for sale. Each summer Bouguereau would return to his birthplace of La Rochelle to paint in his studio he had built there and it was there that he died in 190after several years of heart disease. he is buried in the famous cemetary of Montparnasse, near where he had lived in Paris. William-Adolphe Bouguereau declared that he was only really happy when painting and indeed he completed almost 70canvases during his long career. Despite being verbally attacked by Degas and the Impressionists who considered him to be too backward-looking and artificial and to be holding back the progression of French art, by the time of his death William Bouguereau was one of the most respected and loved of French artists. he was a favorite of collectors who found in his scenes of bathers, nymphs and other idylls, the perfect escapism from the pressures of every-day life. |
