In the life of Henri Fantin-Latour
The whole life1859–1881
Stays in London at Whistler's invitation
At Whistler's invitation Fantin-Latour stayed in London several times between 1859 and 1881 and found many admirers in England for his still lifes of flowers and fruit. Whistler introduced him to his brother-in-law Francis Seymour Haden and the engraver Edwin Edwards; it was in London that Fantin learned etching.
1876
Marries the painter Victoria Dubourg
In 1876 Fantin-Latour married the painter Victoria Dubourg, whom he had met when both were copying the same painting at the Louvre. From then on he spent his summers on her family's country estate at Buré in Lower Normandy.
1876
Bayreuth: Wagner's Ring cycle
In 1876 Fantin-Latour attended a performance of the Ring cycle at Bayreuth, which he found particularly moving. He later published lithographs inspired by Richard Wagner in La Revue wagnérienne, which helped solidify his reputation among the Parisian avant-garde as an anti-naturalist painter.
