Original high quality oil painting on canvas. There's some holes on canvass that need restoration. Bertrand, James [Jean-Baptiste],On the advice of Alphonse Périn (1798?1874), he then moved to Paris, where he entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in 1844 and first exhibited at the Salon in 1857. He worked for 11 years with Périn and his teacher and friend Victor Orsel on decorations for the chapel of the Eucharist in the Church of Notre Dame de Lorette in Paris and in 1854 executed a series of reproductions of work by Orsel. From 1857 to 1862 he stayed in Italy, where he probably met the Nazarenes who had not yet left Rome (Friedrich Overbeck, Gebhard Flatz and Franz Riepenhausen). These were pleasant compositions showing the great heroines of history and the novel, as in the Death of Sappho (1867), the Death of Virginie (1869), the Death of Manon Lescaut (1870) and the Death of Ophelia (1872). These works, widely known through engravings, assured him a certain popularity.This painting would be a wonderful addition to any vintage European art collection!
