Lhermitte, Leon
French Realist Painter, 1844-1925
was a French painter and etcher of the late nineteenth century. A student of Lecocq de Boisbourdran, he was a realist artist whose primary subject matter was of rural scenes depicting the peasant worker. He gained recognition after his show in the Paris Salon in 1864. His many awards include the French Legion of Honour (1884) and the Grand Prize at the Exposition Universelle in 1889. Lhermitte's innovative use of the then contemporary media of pastels won him the admiration of his contemporaries. Vincent Van Gogh wrote that If every month Le Monde Illustr published one of his compositions... it would be a great pleasure for me to be able to follow it. It is certain that for years I have not seen anything as beautiful as this scene by Lhermitte Related Paintings of Lhermitte, Leon :. | Boat Warpers | Trappers Saluting the Rocky Mountains | Still | Petersburg, Virginia, before the war induced | the lnterior of the buurkerk at utrecht | Related Artists: Joachim PatinirFlemish Northern Renaissance Painter, ca.1485-1524 Ferdinand von Olivierpainted Loisachtal in 1842-1845
