FROM THE ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO’S CATALOG

A pupil of Jacques-Louis David and of the landscape painter Pierre-Henri de Valenciennes, Michallon was the first to be awarded the Prix de Rome for historical landscape in 1817. He studied at the French Academy in Rome between 1818 and 1821; this view from Ingres’s famous studio sports a still life of the artist’s shaving equipment, hairbrush, and painter’s box.
