Exhibited:
Chicago, World Columbian Exposition, 1893Having studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in the studios of Francois Picot and William Bouguereau, Léon Perrault’s academic training and talents as a portraitist brought him to the attention of many American clients and led to important commissions and his inclusion in major collections. He enjoyed enormous success in France during his lifetime, exhibiting at the Salon regularly and earning medals in 1864, 1876, and 1878 as well as being named Chevalier de la Legion d’Honneur in 1887. His works are constructed with a deep awareness of the Academic canvases of his teachers, and paintings of children, putti, and dreamy young maidens appealed to the Salon jury as well as art collectors on both sides of the Atlantic.
The offered painting depicts the infant John the Baptist reclining in a field on a camel hair hide and next to him a staff with cross finial, two common attributes of St. John.
