Jean Paul Laurens Biography

(b fourquevaux, haute-garonne, 28 march 1838; d paris, 23 march 1921). french painter, illustrator and teacher. at an early age he took lessons from a piedmont painter, pédoya, who had come to fourquevaux to decorate the village church. pédoya was a harsh teacher, and laurens moved to the nearby ecole des beaux-arts in toulouse. there he studied under jean-blaise villemsens (1806–59), the professor of sculpture, who took a great interest in him. in 1858 he won the prix de la ville de toulouse, which paid for him to complete his studies in paris. there he was a pupil first of alexandre bida (1823–95) and then of léon cogniet. after a single unsuccessful attempt to win the prix de rome, he made his début at the salon in 1863 with the death of cato (1863; toulouse, mus. augustins), which already revealed his fascination for historical subjects.
