State: Fourth state of 4. Ref: Beraldi 52/IFF 55. Provenance: L. A. de Vries (not in Lugt). Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Louis Pierre Henriquet-Dupont' after 'Paul Delaroche'. Louis Pierre Henriquel-Dupont (1797-1892) was a very talented French portrait painter, engraver, lithographer and designer from Paris. Between the ages of 14 and 17, he studied painting under Pierre-Narcisse Guerin at the Ecole des beaux-arts in Paris. He then devoted himself for four years to an apprenticeship in engraving under Charles Clement Balvay, nicknamed "the last of the fine burinists", who made him copy the great masters. Between 1816 and 1818, Henriquel lost out on the first prize for engraving twice, which determined him to set up his own studio and follow new styles. Under the influence of English engravers and of Girard Audran, he tended towards "a live, witty and clear line". In 1831 his engraving after Louis Hersent's Abdication of Gustavus Vasa established his reputation and won him the legion d'honneur. He then worked for six years on his masterwork, an engraving of Paul Delaroche's Hemicycle of the fine arts - this engraving won an honorary medal at the 1853 Paris Salon. In 1849 he was elected a member of the Académie des beaux-arts. He became a professor at the École des beaux-arts in 1863 and founded the Société française de la gravure in 1868. In 1871 he was made president of the Académie des beaux-arts and was still engraving aged 85. (source wikipedia) Hippolyte / Paul Delaroche (1797-1856) was a very popular French history painter, portraitist and sculptor from Paris. He was trained by Antoine-Jean, Baron Gros.
