En la vida de Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier
La vida enteraaged 17 (1832 – 1833)
At seventeen becomes Léon Cogniet’s pupil
Placed with a druggist in the Rue des Lombards, at seventeen he obtains his parents’ leave to become an artist and, on the recommendation of the painter Potier, is admitted to Léon Cogniet’s studio; he forms his style after the Dutch masters in the Louvre.
1857
Nine works at the Salon of 1857
His triumph is sustained: Meissonier shows nine pictures and drawings, among them Young Man of the Time of the Regency, The Painter, The Shoeing Smith, The Musician and A Reading at Diderot’s. With Gérôme and Cabanel he counts as one of the three most successful artists of the Second Empire.
1864
Salon of 1864: “Solferino” and “1814”
At the Salon Meissonier shows The Emperor at Solferino, which took him more than three years to complete, and 1814.
1878
Sixteen pictures at the great exhibition of 1878
For the great exhibition of 1878 he sends sixteen pictures, among them the portrait of Alexandre Dumas fils (seen at the Salon of 1877), Cuirassiers of 1805 and Moreau and his Staff before Hohenlinden. From then on Meissonier exhibits less in the Salons and sends his work to smaller exhibitions.
24 May 1884
