RICARD, LOUIS GUSTAVE (1823-1873)

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 286 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RHY-RON
RICARD, LOUIS GUSTAVE (1823-1873) , French painter, was born in
Marseilles
  in 1823, and studied first under
Auber
  in his native town, and subsequently under Coignet in Paris. The formation of his masterly, distinguished style in
portraiture
  was, however, due rather to ten years' intelligent copying of the old masters at the Louvre and at the Italian galleries, than to any school training. He was a master of technique, and his portraitsabout two hundredreveal an extra-
ordinary
  insight into the
character
  of his sitters. Nevertheless, for some time after his death his name was almost forgotten by the public, and it is only of quite
recent
  years that he has been conceded the position among the leading masters of the
modern
  French school which is his due. A portrait of himself, and one of Alfred de Musset, are at the Luxembourg Gallery. Among his best known works are the portrait of his
mother
 , and those of the painters Fromentin, Heilbuth and Chaplin.

Ricard
 , by Camille Mauclair (Paris, Librairie de fart).
