Note: Tanzi studied with with French masters William Adolphe Bouguereau and Jules Lefebre, and built his reputation as a highly versatile artist. In 1901, he was given the highest decoration of merit in France, the Chevalier of the Legion d'Honneur, as a recognition of his achievement and ability in artistry.
