Antoine Vollon
Gray partridge hunting trophy

About the Item

Antoine VOLLON (Lyon, 1833 – Paris, 1900) Gray partridge hunting trophy Oil on canvas Signed and dated indistinctly lower left 35 x 25 cm A student of the engraver CHARASSE then of VIBERT at the École des Beaux-Arts in Lyon between 1851 and 1855, he shared with RIBOT the taste for violent lighting, muted tones, and the solidity of the material. He settled in Paris in 1863 and debuted at the Salon the following year; he exhibited there until 1900. Painter of still life with a beautiful richness of paste, his submissions to the Salon, almost regularly acquired by the State, confirm his success; he knows how to express the taste, specific to the Second Empire, for the presentation of objects in a studied disorder and pleases all audiences. Elected to the Academy of Fine Arts, in 1900 he was part of the jury for the Universal Exhibition.
