Son of employee of the prefecture of Laval, Charles Zacharie LANDELLE accompanied his father transferred to Paris in 1827. He will not then return to Laval until the end of his life in 1895 for the inauguration of a museum of painting.
Admitted in 1837 to the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, he followed the teachings of Paul DELAROCHE and Ary SCHEFFER. His career began with the production of portraits and large religious compositions - notably for the Saint-Nicolas-des-Champs, Saint-Sulpice and Saint-Roch churches in Paris - which were an immediate success and enabled him to gain recognition from the high society of the nineteenth century. He began at the Paris Salon of 1841 with a self-portrait noticed by Louis-Philippe, obtained a third class medal the following year and a first class in 1848. LANDELLE was also awarded at the Exposition Universelle of 1855 in Paris, and in Philadelphia. From then on he was able to follow a career as an official painter, between state commissions and portraits of the great people of his time (Portrait of Alfred de MUSSET, kept at the Palace of Versailles). Napoleon III bought him two paintings of the Beatitudes at the Salon of 1852 to donate to Laval, birthplace of the artist and hired him to participate in the decoration of the Salon des Aides de Camp at the Palais de l'Elysée.
As early as the 1850s, LANDELLE discovered the Orient by his travels; especially Morocco, where he will have the opportunity to return on an official mission in 1866. He then realized on his return his famous Femme fellah, a work bought by the Emperor on his personal cassette, and unfortunately destroyed in 1870 in France. fire of the Château de Saint-Cloud. He then participated in a trip to Egypt in 1875, and went down the Nile with the Egyptologist Auguste MARIETTE. In 1880, LANDELLE discovered Algeria accompanied by his son Georges, also a painter. Conquered by the place, he decided each year between 1881 and 1892 to spend his winters in Algeria and to bring back some paintings or studies.
LANDELLE was made knight of the Legion of Honor.

- Portrait of Jean Claude Pellegrini (1787-1854)Located in PARIS, FRFrançois Jean SABLET (Morges, 1745 – Nantes, 1819) Portrait of Jean Claude Pellegrini (1787-1854) Honorary Divisional Inspector of Bridges and Roads. Oil on canvas Monogrammed and dated lower right 30x25cm 1819 Painter of portraits, Jean François Sablet, originally from Morges, born November 23, 1745, is the eldest son of Jacob Sablet (1720–1798), bourgeois of this city, house painter, gilder, art dealer, and Suzanne Dupuis (1722–1775), settled in Lausanne from 1754. In 1767, on June 8, he prepared to leave to “improve in the art of painting” with a viaticum from the Council of Morges and a scholarship from Bern. In Paris, he was a pupil of Joseph-Marie Vien at the Royal Academy (1768–73). In 1772, he was joined by his younger brother Jacques, who in 1776 left for Rome to pursue a brilliant career there. François, he remains in Paris, goes almost unnoticed there having neither competed, nor received a prize, nor even exhibited. In 1774, he signed and dated the Portrait of the Count of Artois, as Colonel-General of the Swiss and Graubünden. In 1777, he married Marie Madeleine Borel, daughter of a wood merchant, and settled near the Quinze-Vingt at the Bastille, as a portrait painter. He entered the Masonic lodge of Celestial Friendship and therefore enjoyed a certain notoriety. He executed the portrait of Charles-Henri, Comte d'Estaing, engraved by Charles-Etienne Gaucher (1779). In 1781, L. Perrot reproduced two of his works from the cabinet of Madame de Saint-Maurice, Childhood in the Countryside and Visit to the Nurse, for the philanthropic society founded in particular by Louis d'Affry, captain of the Swiss Guards. . In addition to the fact that these subjects denote an ideal of benevolence under the aegis of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, they testify to relations with the Swiss milieu. Finally, the format and quality of two large full-length portraits Vestal pouring incense (1781) and the Offering to Hymen (1783) reflect her favor in society on the eve of the Revolution and, although in shadow, he is able to build life annuities. From this first stage are dated two sketchbooks in black chalk and red chalk of characters, interior scenes, theatrical evocations, including the Vestal Virgin pouring incense. He also signed a series of wash illustrations relating to mythology and other subjects taken from Ovid. In 1789, the political climate suddenly darkened, the amateurs left, dragging the artists with them. François Sablet took the road to Switzerland and, in January 1792, joined his brother in Rome, a genre painter in Italian costumes and portraits in nature called "conversation pieces", models from which François was to draw inspiration. François spent the summer in Genzano in the Roman countryside, where he also devoted himself to landscape and popular costumes. Beat d'Hennezel, their compatriot, evokes the evenings at the Sablets' with their artist friends, busy drawing portraits while exchanging heated remarks on the political situation. However, the events in Paris had repercussions in Rome. In January 1793 the French representative was assassinated, the French and other French speakers...Category

Thus the full-length portrait of Jenny...Category
