Alexandre-Évariste Fragonard

17801850

Painter, sculptor and draughtsman, son of Jean-Honoré Fragonard. Having been taught by his father and by David, he attracted notice at an early age and was considered the equal of Jean-Baptiste Isabey and of Hilaire Ledru in his drawings. He made his début at the Salon of 1793 with Timoleon Sacrificing his Brother (drawing; untraced); later he exhibited genre subjects similar to those of Jean-Baptiste Mallet, which were frequently reproduced in prints.
