JEAN ALAUX (178s-r864) A native of Bordeaux, where he received his initial training, jean Alaux entered the studio of Franfois-Andre Vincent (1746-1816) in Paris in 1807; later he studied with Pierre-Narcisse Guffin (1774-1833). He won the Prix de Rome in 1815, which enabled him to spend the years 1816-20 as a pensionnaire of the Academie de France at the Villa Medici (where he befriended Ingres, who made two portraits of him); he remained in Italy for the most part until1824. Although he was attracted to the genre of landscape, producing portfolios of lithographs and contributing to Baron Taylor's Voyages pittoresques (a survey of old French monuments, customs, and folklore published in twentyfour volumes between 1820 and 1878 ), Alaux became better known for his historical and allegorical scenes. Achieving official success at the Salon of 1824, he subsequently executed numerous commissions for the Louvre, Versailles, and Fontainebleau. Louis-Philippe (r. 1830-48) named him court painter, and he served as director of the academy in Rome from 1847 to 1852. GT I AEM 91.

A Mother and Child Black Chalk, Heightened with White Chalk, on Brown Paper
Pierre-Narcisse GUERIN (Paris 1774 - Rome or Verona 1883) A Mother and Child Black chalk, heightened with white chalk, on brown paper. A slight sketch of the head of a child in black chalk on the verso. Inscribed M.me Guérin / et [?] / Par son [?] peintre / sous Napoleon Ier / portrait donné par heritage å son élève Victor O[rsel] / dont la portion fut le quart de ses études on the backing board. Further inscribed Guérin (Pierre-Narcise, baron) / Paris 1774 + Rome 1833 / dont le peintre Orsel 1795+1850 fut l’élève. / Le maître légua à son élève le / quart de ses études, dont ce / dessin représentant Madame Guérin / et son fils. on a label pasted onto the backing board. 239 x 163 mm. (9 3/8 x 6 3/8 in.) This charming and intimate portrait of a mother and child stands quite apart from the Neoclassical severity of much of Guérin’s draughtsmanship, once belonged to the artist’s pupil, assistant and heir, the painter Victor Orsel (1795-1850). Orsel had entered Guérin’s atelier in 1815 and accompanied his master to Rome in 1822. At Guérin’s death Orsel inherited a quarter of the drawings in his studio, including the present sheet, while the remainder of the drawings were distributed among several fellow pupils of the master, including Jean Alaux, Guillaume Bodinier, Léon Cogniet, Raymond Monvoisin, Alphonse Périn and Ary Scheffer. This drawing was sold by Victor Orsel’s heirs at auction in Lyon in 1888, nearly forty years after his death, by which time it had come to be mistakenly identified as a portrait of Guérin’s wife and child.

For clarity, the author has chosen to use Rouillet, though the name is sometimes also found in historical documentation and contemporary commentary as Roulliet or Rouilliet. The First Steps of Drawing: Bosio's Treatise and the Dupuis Method At the dawn of the nineteenth century, art education was, as it had been for centuries, a matter of constant practice aimed at the mastery of drawing. The academies taught only drawing, as students were not allowed to paint until they had become accomplished draftsmen. Typically, an aspiring artist, having followed a course of drawing from an early age, was sent to one of the numerous ateliers in Paris. There he would continue drawing for many months, or even years.[1] Students drew from plaster casts of antique statuary and, especially, from the live model.
