This etching is related to the painting London Visitors exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1874, no. 116.
The setting is the portico of the National Gallery, looking toward the Church of St. Martin’s-in-the-Fields.
Such works give Tissot a minor but distinguished position as a predecessor of the school of architectural
etchers founded on the style of Whistler’s Thames and Venice etchings. This etching was exhibited at the
Grosveror Gallery, 1879.
Tissot was born in Nantes, France. He studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1857 where he made
friends with Degas, Whistler, and the writer Dauder. He exhibited a Late Romantic style historical painting
for the first time at the Salon in 1859. Being influenced by Manet, when he went to London and exhibited
at the Royal Academy in the years of 1863/64, he began to use Impressionist techniques of colour and
composition. He made great success with his anecdotal and detailed pictures, which was also influenced
by the Japanese style of painting. He emigrated to England in 1871, and returned to Paris in 1882. He
had finished a series of 15 pictures of typical Parisian women during the years of 1883-1885 In 1888 he
underwent a religious conversion when he went into a church to ‘catch the atmosphere for a picture’, and
thereafter he devoted himself to biblical subjects. He visited the Holy Land in 1886-87 and in 1889, and
his illustrations to the events of the Bible became very popular, both in book form and when the original
drawings were exhibited. A gold medal was awarded to him at the World Fair in Paris in 1889. He died at
Chateau-de-Buillon in 1902.
