In the life of Théodore Géricault

The whole life

  1. 1820–1821

    London: urban poverty and friendship with Charlet

    In London Géricault witnessed urban poverty, made drawings of his impressions and published lithographs based on these observations, free of sentimentality. He associated much there with Charlet, the lithographer and caricaturist.

  2. 1821–1824

    Illness and falls from horses after his return from England

    After returning to Paris from England Géricault was often ill, and his condition was made worse by several falls during horseback rides.

  3. 1824

    Tuberculosis and a long period of suffering before his death

    Weakened by riding accidents and a chronic tubercular infection, Géricault died in Paris in 1824 after a long period of suffering.

  4. 26 January 1824

    Died
