Étienne-Adolphe Piot moved to Paris whilst still in his teens to study with the influential French artist and teacher, Léon Cogniet (1794-1880). Cogniet’s studio at this time would have been a thrilling place, populated by burgeoning talents such as Léon Bonnat (1833-1922), Jules Joseph Lefebvre (1836-1911), and Pierre Auguste Cot (1837-1883), all of whom – with Piot – would become some of the greatest painters of the female form in the history of art.
Piot’s particular genius lay in his masterfully drawn and beautifully lit depictions of the female face, most frequently set against a dark background. As illustrated in the current work, his rendering of the human hand was as good as any artist of the period.
During his long career, in addition to the Paris Salon, Piot exhibited at the Goupil Gallery, the Exposition de Bordeaux, the National Academy of Design in New York, and the prestigious Exposition Universelle of 1889. In 1883 he was elected a member of the Société des Artistes Français.

Around 1619, he left for Florence where he worked for Cosimo II de Medici. He probably already met Nicolas Poussin and Jacques Callot there. Stella left Florence for Rome in 1622 or 1623, where he befriended Poussin, who arrived in 1624. Stella became famous in the world of Italian amateurs for his small paintings painted on precious supports: marble, agate, lapis, slate, as well as by his engravings and drawings. In 1634, having received offers from the King of Spain, he left Rome in the suite of Marshal de Créqui, French ambassador. He passed through Venice, stopped in Lyon in 1635, then in Paris. Retained by Richelieu who took him into his service, he settled in the capital of the kingdom. Covered with favors, he benefited from accommodation in the Louvre and a considerable pension. He later received the Collar of the Order of Saint-Michel, a rare honor for an artist...Category
