Henri Lehmann (1814 – 1882)
Henri Lehmann (1814-1882) è stato un pittore storico e ritrattista francese di origine tedesca, noto come stretto collaboratore di Ingres. Dipinse scene religiose, allegorie e ritratti di figure illustri come Liszt e Chopin.
Lehmann executed several portraits, both painted and drawn, of his first cousin Faustine Léo. This portrait clearly emulates the example of his master, Ingres, notably in its smooth, polished surface and the crisply delineated contours of the figure. Yet its intensely saturated palette and intimate mood set Lehmann"s work apart from that of Ingres. The portrait bears its original frame.
