Jules Dupré

1811 – 1889

French painter, one of the chief members of the Barbizon school of landscape painters. If Corot stands for the lyric and Rousseau for the epic aspect of the poetry of nature, Dupré is the exponent of her tragic and dramatic aspects. Dupré exhibited first at the Salon in 1831, and three years later was awarded a second-class medal.
