In the life of Théodore Rousseau
The whole life1867
President of the Exposition jury
Rousseau was elected president of the fine-art jury for the Exposition Universelle of 1867; his disappointment at being denied the higher awards may have affected his health.
August 1867
Paralysis and last months
In August 1867 Rousseau was paralysed; he recovered slightly but suffered several further attacks in the autumn, and in November his condition worsened. He died on 22 December (of a heart rupture, by some accounts) in the presence of his lifelong friend Jean-François Millet, who had been much with him in his last years.
