Theophile Narcisse Chauvel
A pupil of François-Édouard Picot and Jean-Joseph Bellel, Théophile Chauvel entered the Imperial School of Fine Arts on March 4, 1854. In the same year, he won second prize in Rome for historical landscape. He first entered the Paris Salon in 1855, where he painted and exhibited until 1859. At that time, he devoted himself to dry point, a type of lithography and etching, from 1861 to 1867 where he represented, among other things, views of the forest of Fontainebleau, then reproductions of works by the masters of the Barbizon school.
From 1874–75, Chauvel worked for the annual album L'Eau forte and the magazine L'Art, of which he became director in the 1890s and in which were reproduced his prints after Théodore Rousseau, Jules Dupré, Narcissus Díaz de la Peña, and Charles-François Daubigny. But it is in his engravings of interpretation of Corot that he asserts all his mastery. Chauvel was a medalist at the Salon in 1870, 1873 and 1878. He won the medal of honor at the Salon des Artistes Français, the first awarded to the engraving section, in 1881. He was awarded the grand prix of the Salon in 1889 and 1900. He was appointed Knight of the Legion of Honor in 1879, then promoted to Officer of the same order in 1896.

- Figure Study (From Interior: Evening)By Stone RobertsLocated in Fairlawn, OHSigned and numbered by the artist Edition: 25 Printed on Hahnemuhle paper Published by Neptune Fine Arts Condition: excellent Plate/Image size: Sheet size: "Stone Roberts’ luminous still lifes, private interiors, and large-scale panoramas of figures in motion invite us to look—and then look some more—and relish in the sensuality of the three-dimensional world. While Roberts’ varied influences include Greek Mythology and Roman Classicism, Dutch and Spanish Old Masters, Fantin-Latour, Ingres, and Balthus, his subjects are decidedly of today. From Grand Central Terminal to his wife gardening in Stonington, Connecticut, Roberts paints people and places from his personal surroundings into formal compositions that often appear to have mythical, literary, or psychological elements. Roberts received his B.A. from Yale University, New Haven, CT, where he studied painting with William Bailey, and his M.F.A. from the Tyler School of Art, Philadelphia, and Rome. Roberts' work can be found in numerous public and private collections throughout the United States and Europe, including the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Louis-Dreyfus Family Collection, New York. A solo exhibition of Stone Roberts’ work was held at the Museum of the City of New York in 2012 entitled Stone Roberts: New York City Paintings."
