Im Leben von Anne-Louis Girodet
Das ganze Leben1801–1805
Illustrates Racine for the Didot edition
Girodet draws illustrations for the Didot edition of Racine's works, published in 1801–1805.
1806
Exhibits “Scene from the Deluge”
The painting, shown in competition with David's “Sabines”, was awarded the decennial prize (prix décennal); it is now in the Louvre. Other accounts date the work to 1810.
1807–1817
His powers begin to fail
In his forties Girodet's powers began to fail, and his habit of working at night and other excesses weakened his constitution.
1808
Immense success of “The Entombment of Atala”
The painting, based on François-René de Chateaubriand's novel “Atala” (first published in 1801), won immense popularity thanks to its fortunate choice of subject and its remarkable departure from the theatricality of Girodet's usual manner.
