A career shaped by the School and the Salon
The human figure at the center of academic art
Trained by Léon Cogniet at the School of Fine Arts, Jules Lefebvre won the Prix de Rome in 1861 then exhibited at the Salon for more than half a century. Portraitist, history painter and specialist in the female figure, he also became an influential professor at the Académie Julian, where his requirement for drawing marked many international artists. The "Jules Lefebvre" selection offers its own journey on this subject. His reading favors storytelling.
The surface appears calm, but each pose results from a rigorous construction of drawing, anatomy and light.
