Artist Biography

Adrien Moreau (1843-1906) was born in Troyes in France. He began his artistic training as an apprentice glassmaker, but left for Paris to study at the École des Beaux-Arts. He first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1868, being described by fellow artist and critic, Joseph Uzanne, as “among the ranks of the greatest painters of contemporary genre.” In 1873 his work, ‘Concert d’Amateurs dans un Atelier d’Artiste’ established him in the public eye, and his art became in great demand, particularly in America. He continued to exhibit at the salon until the end of his life, being awarded a silver medal in 1876 for ‘Repose at the farm’. He also won silver medals at the 1889 and 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris. Moreau became a Chevalier of the Légion d’honneur in 1892. Moreau painted in oil and watercolour, and was known for his historical depictions of the French upper classes in past centuries, though he was equally at home in genre landscape paintings featuring peasants and their everyday life. He also illustrated books by authors such as Voltaire, Victor Hugo and Honoré de Balzac. He also wrote a book on the history of his family called ‘Les Moreaus’ (1893).
