Louis Godefroy Jadin was born in Paris in 1882 and was trained under the supervision of numerous of the most prominent artists in Paris. After several years of apprenticeship, Jadin exhibited at the Salon in 1831 and was awarded medals in 1834, 1840, 1848 and 1855.
Having abandoned the subject of pure landscape painting, he devoted himself to hunting and animal subjects. Within a few years Jadin became the favored painter of dogs belonging to the Parisian High Society. Through his friendship with Alexandre Dumas, he was introduced to the Duke of Orleans who ordered large paintings to decorate the dining room of the Tuileries Palace. These paintings unfortunately disappeared in a fire. Shortly after, now having earned considerable fame, Godefroy Jadin became the official painter of the hunts of the Emperor Napoleon III, and then he achieved still greater notoriety for his paintings of Napoleon's hunting dogs.
He was made Chevalier of the Légion d'honneur in 1854, His paintings can be found in numerous museums including the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; The Royal Collection Trust, London; Museo Carnavalet-The Museum of the History of Paris.
Jadin was one of the best animal painters of the 19th century, a specialist in representations of dogs. He died in 1882.

- Antique Portrait of 6 Dogs on Porcelain by Maison Pichenot-Loebnitz ca. 1870sLocated in SANTA FE, NMAntique and exceptionally rare and fine Portrait of 6 Dogs on Enameled Ceramic Maison Pichenot-Loebnitz France, ca. 1870. 25 x 8 (31 x 13 framed) inches This rectangular panel made of enameled ceramic was made by Jules Loebnitz in the second half of the 19th century depicts a suite of 6 very fine canines in a landscape setting. The Pichenot-Loebnitz factory was founded by Mr Pichenot, grandfather of Jules Loebnitz, in 1833. From 1841, Mr Pichenot created a new, innovative method of uncrackable earthenware panels for architectural mantels, winning a medal at the Exhibition of 1844. In 1857, Jules Loebnitz, an artist as much as an industrialist, became director of the factory. For his first major job, Loebnitz passionately collaborated with architect Félix Duban on the restoration of the Blois Castle, recreating the antique tiles of the mantelpieces. He then went to work with the most prominent architects of his times; Eugène Viollet-le-Duc, Laval, Charles Garnier, Just Lisch and Paul Sédille. A friendship was born in 1867 between Paul Sédille, the architect of the Printemps department stores and the Basilica of Bois-Chenu in Domrémy-la-Pucelle, and Jules Loebnitz that would lead to a tight, long-lasting professional, artistic, and intellectual collaboration. This was an important meeting between the theorist of polychrome architecture and the man who had pushed French ceramic art considerably forward, allowing for large, enameled earthenware plates decorated with very bright and long-lasting glass-like colors. Many architectural projects were born from the collaboration of Sédille and Loebnitz: World’s fair pavilions, apartment buildings, villas, hotels, and monuments. During the Great Exhibition of 1878, Paul Sédille created the door of the Palais des Beaux-arts, while Jules Loebnitz was in charge of the ceramic decoration of the facade. A reporter covering the 1878 World’s fair described the monumental door...Category
