HENNER, JEAN JACQUES (1829-1905) , French painter, was born on the 5th of
March
  1829 at Dornach (
Alsace
 ). At first a pupil of Drolling and of Picot, he entered the Ecole des
Beaux
 -Arts in 1848, and took the Prix de Rome with a painting of "
Adam
  and Eve finding the
Body
  of Abel " (1858). At Rome he was guided by
Flandrin
 , and, among other works, painted four pictures for the gallery at
Colmar
 . He first exhibited at the Salon in 1863 a " Bather Asleep," and subsequently contributed " Chaste Susanna " (1865) ; " Byblis turned into a
Spring
  " (1867); " The Magdalene " (1878); " Portrait of M. Hayem " (1878); " Christ Entombed " (1879); " Saint Jerome " (1881); " Herodias " (1887); " A Study " (1891); " Christ in His Shroud," and a " Portrait of Carolus-Duran " (I896); a " Portraitof Mlle Fouquier" (1897); "The Levite of the Tribe of Ephraim" (1898), for which a first-class
medal
  was awarded to him; and "The Dream" (1900). Among other professional distinctions Henner also took a Grand Prix for painting at the Paris Inter-national Exhibition of 1900. He was made Knight of the Legion of Honour in 1873, Officer in 1878 and
Commander
  in 1889. In 1889 he succeeded Cabanel in the Institut de France.
