Jean-Jacques Berne-Bellecour
Jean-Jacques Berne-Bellecour was the pupil of Jean-Léon Gérôme and Édouard Detaille. From Gérôme, he certainly retained the control of colors and their accord while from Detaille, he retained a real talent for portraiture and psychology beyond a documentary aspect. It was during the Great War that Berne-Bellecour became a full-fledged military painter, and he particularly focused on colonial troops. The same ones that made this European war a world war. Far from what one could imagine from a haughty or condescending glance. In his paintings, Berne-Bellecour strives to give these men an image that reflects both their nobility, their courage and their distress on a theater of operations so far from their homelands.

- French 19th Century Romantic Period 1830s Parisian Lady Portrait Madame SeguinBy Adele GrassetLocated in Norwich, GBA stunning portrait of a Parisian beauty from the romantic period by Adele Grasset (active ca 1830-1850). With her intelligent eyes and determined look, doesn't this lady bear great resemblance to Chopin's paramour George Sand? The sitter is Jeanne Marie Vidal, wife of Claude Auguste Seguin, from a prominent family in Avignon, as the family tree attached to the back for the frame indicates. Research in old annals has also revealed that Madame Seguin was a modern and independent lady: she worked in lady's fashion in Paris, and patented wrapping mechanism that protected lady's hats during their transport! As often with woman artists of the 18th and 19th century, there is little biographical information available on the artist, Adèle Grasset. We do know however, that she had studied with the highly prominent artist François Gérard (1770-1837) , known also as the Baron Gérard...Category
