Jean Richard GOUBIE (Paris, 1842 - Paris, 1899) Student of Jean Léon GÉRÔME in At the Paris School of Fine Arts, GOUBIE took part in the Paris Salon from 1869 to 1893, obtaining a third class medal in 1874. GOUBIE was probably impressed by his master GÉRÔME because he invited him to join as well as seven other travelers to a painting expedition in Egypt and Asia Minor. The group included another student, Paul LENOIR, the realist painter, Léon BONNAT, two journalists, a doctor and another friend. GÉRÔME also invited his brother-in-law, Albert GOUPIL, amateur photographer and son of the famous merchant and publisher. It is probably through this meeting that Goupil & Cie will later publish a series of paintings by GOUBIE accompanied by a verse of poetry as part of Goupil's Illustrations at the French Salons from 1873 to 1879. GOUBIE experienced a rapid fame with his animal works, especially those depicting horses described with meticulous, quasi-anatomical observation and mounted by elegant horsemen or amazons of the aristocratic or bourgeois world. GOUBIE was also very popular with the American clientele probably thanks to the GOUPILS. For example, his painting exhibited at the Salon of 1872 and titled The Hunting Prize was made for James H. STEBBINS of New York. The painting is today at the Metropolitan Museum in New York. A second work, Horses and Characters is also preserved in an American museum in Cincinnati.
