BERNARD ROMAIN JULIEN 1802-1871 Bayona, Francia

Bernard Romain Julien or Bernard-Romain Julien (16 November 1802 – 3 December 1871) was a French printmaker, lithographer, painter and draughtsman. Julien was born on 16 November 1802 in Bayonne.[1][2] He was trained to draw in his home town between 1815 and 1818 before moving to Paris, where he studied painting from 1822 onwards under Antoine-Jean Gros at the École des Beaux-Arts.[1] He exhibited some paintings and drawings at the Paris Salon between 1833 and 1850, but principally showed lithographs,[1] for which he was known.[3] He produced lithographs of other artists, like George Henry Hall's Cours de Dessin.[4] In 1840, he published Étude à deux crayons ("Study in deux crayons").[5] In Landor's Cottage, Edgar Allan Poe describes Julien's work, "One of these drawings was a scene of Oriental luxury, or rather voluptuousness; another was a carnival piece, spirited beyond compare; the third was a Greek female head—a face so divinely beautiful, and yet of an expression so provokingly indeterminate, never before arrested my attention."[5] In 1854, he made a full-bust portrait of George Washington, after Gilbert Stuart, and the lithograph is in the art collection of Mount Vernon.[6] He returned to his hometown in 1866 and taught drawing there until his death on 3 December 1871 El desnudo en el arte: Bernard Romain Julien De marmteo en 29 junio, 2024 Bernard Romain Julien (Bayona, Francia, 1802-1871) fue un dibujante, pintor, y especialmente grabador, francés.
