Imens i livet hos Théodore Rousseau
Hele livet1831
Salon debut: a landscape of the Auvergne
The nineteen-year-old Rousseau submitted work to the Paris Salon, and his landscape of the wild Auvergne won recognition for its lively brushwork. At the Salons of 1831, 1833, 1834 and 1835 he showed six works.
1831
Takes up aquatint
On Célestin Nanteuil's advice, in 1831 Rousseau studied the technique of aquatint. Besides painting he made original prints, including glass plates for photographic printing.
1832–1833
First paints outdoors
In 1832–1833 Rousseau first went out to paint en plein air. His painting is associated with the notion of the “intimate landscape”, its motifs supplied above all by the forest of Fontainebleau.
