North African Dwelling, c. 1840; oil/canvas, 18" x 25.5", signed. Although he studied briefly with Etienne Bouhot (1780-1862) and then Alexandre-Denis Abel de Pujol (1787-1861), he was largely self-taught. He made only one visit to the Middle East, in 1828 (visiting Turkey, Greece and North Africa), but in the 1830s he established a considerable reputation as a painter of Orientalist themes.
