その頃、Paul Delarocheの人生では
生涯をすべて見る1833
Becomes a professor at the École des Beaux-Arts
A year after his election to the Académie, he takes up a professorship at the school where he himself once studied. His pupils include Jean-Léon Gérôme, Jean-François Millet and Thomas Couture.
1833
Commissioned to paint a mural in the Madeleine

Aware of his lack of experience in religious painting, he spends a year in Italy studying the religious art of the past; on his return he is told he is to work with Jules-Claude Ziegler and abandons the project altogether, thinking Ziegler would spoil the image he already had in mind.

Stops exhibiting at the Salons
After “St. Cecilia” he stops showing his work altogether: the cool reception of the painting, together with his rejection of Davidian values in French society and government, leads to a self-imposed exile from the state-sponsored Salons.
1837
Receives the commission for “The Hemicycle”
The École’s architect, Félix Duban, entrusts him with a monumental mural for the school’s ceremonial hall, later known as the Hémicycle. Four of his pupils assist him.
