BIOGRAPHY - Pierre Paul Prud'hon (1758 - 1823)
was a French Romantic painter and draughtsman best known for his allegorical
paintings and portraits. Prud'hon was at times clearly influenced by
Neo-classicism, at other times by Romanticism. Appreciated by other
artists and writers like Stendhal, Delacroix, Millet and Baudelaire
for his chiaroscuro and for the convincing realism, his most famous
painting is probably Crucifixion (1822) painted for the St. Etienne's
cathedral in Metz. Crucifixion now hangs in the Louvre. (Crucifixion
at Web Gallery of Art).
