Dans la vie de Théodore Rousseau
La vie entière1861
A failed auction and a run of misfortunes
After an unsuccessful auction of his works in 1861, Rousseau contemplated leaving Paris for Amsterdam or London, or even New York. A series of misfortunes followed: his wife's mental health worsened, his aged father came to depend on him for money, his patrons were few, and while he was away with his ill wife a youth living in his home, a friend of the family, committed suicide in his Barbizon cottage.
1861

The Alps: sketches of Mont Blanc and pneumonia
In 1863 Rousseau visited the Alps and made sketches of Mont Blanc, but fell dangerously ill with inflammation of the lungs; back in Barbizon he suffered from insomnia and gradually weakened.
